We examine the link between family and personal networks. Using arguments about meeting opportunities, competition and social influence, we hypothesise how the presence of specific types of family members (i.e., a partner, children, parents and siblings) and non-family members (i.e., friends, neighbours and colleagues) in the network mutually affect one another. In addition, we propose that-beyond their mere presence-the active role of family members in the network strongly affects the presence of non-family members in the network. Data from the third wave of the Survey on the Social Networks of the Dutch, collected in 2012 and 2013, show that active involvement is of key importance; more than merely having family members present in one's personal network, the active involvement of specific types of family members in the personal network is associated with having disproportionally more other family members and having somewhat fewer non-family members in the network.
我们研究家庭网络与个人网络之间的联系。基于关于见面机会、竞争和社会影响的论据，我们假设网络中特定类型的家庭成员（即伴侣、子女、父母和兄弟姐妹）以及非家庭成员（即朋友、邻居和同事）的存在如何相互影响。此外，我们提出，除了他们的单纯存在之外，家庭成员在网络中的积极作用强烈影响非家庭成员在网络中的存在。2012年和2013年收集的荷兰社会网络调查第三波数据表明，积极参与至关重要；与仅仅在个人网络中有家庭成员相比，特定类型的家庭成员在个人网络中的积极参与与网络中其他家庭成员数量不成比例地更多以及非家庭成员数量略少相关。
