תקציר	The Exponential Random Graph Model (ERGM), also known as the p* model, is a statistical framework for network analysis that models the probability of an observed network as a function of its local structural features — such as reciprocity, triangles, and degree distribution. Developed from the foundational work of Frank and Strauss (1986) and extended into the modern framework by Wasserman and Pattison (1996) and Robins et al. (2007), ERGM is the inferential standard for social network analysis, capable of testing whether observed network structures arise by chance or reflect genuine social processes.	Text network analysis models the words or concepts in a text as nodes and their co-occurrences as edges, then uses network metrics to reveal the structure of meaning. The approach was advanced by Diesner and Carley (2005) for communication networks and by Paranyushkin (2011) for tracing the pathways of meaning circulation in text.
