Ordinal-time: Consider a complete time sequence of an evolving social network that includes each time a new network link is formed and each time an individual adopts a new behavior. For each k, consider the set of all individuals who were ever k-exposed at any time, and define po(k) to be the fraction of this set that became adopters before acquiring a (k + 1)st neighbor who is an adopter.
