The development of typologies is an efficient strategy in the descriptive study of individual differences in the interpersonal environment of relationships. In this paper, we developed a classification of personal networks using structural indicators with a representative sample (n = 403) in a medium-sized city of the metropolitan environment of Seville, in the south of Spain. The typology was based on the analysis of conglomerates with three criteria variables: centralization, number of cliques, and the number of components. The results allowed the identification of four types of personal networks: dense, intermediate, clustered, and fragmented networks. The classification was validated with descriptive data, linear discriminant analysis, and visual-classification procedure. The structural cohesion and the formation of cohesive sub-groups were two key dimensions to describe the variability of the personal networks in the sample.

在对人际关系环境中的个体差异进行描述性研究时，类型学的发展是一种有效的策略。在本文中，我们使用结构指标对个人网络进行了分类，并在西班牙南部塞维利亚的大都市环境中型城市中，使用了具有代表性的样本（n = 403）。类型学基于对具有三个标准变量的企业集团的分析：集中度，集团数量和组件数量。结果允许识别四种类型的个人网络：密集型，中间型，群集型和碎片型网络。使用描述性数据，线性判别分析和视觉分类程序验证了分类。
