User position measures in social networks

Network analysis offers many centrality measures that are successfully utilized in the process of investigating the social network profile. The most important and representative measures are presented in the paper. It includes indegree centrality, proximity prestige, rank prestige, node position, outdegree centrality, eccentrality, closeness centrality, and betweenes centrality. Both feature analysis and experimental comparative studies revealed the general profile of selected measures.
