This paper contributes to the exploration and analysis of compatibility and diversity across multiple, interrelated, structural configurations of groups geared toward the attainment of some objective requiring cooperative activity. The systemic nature of such contexts is addressed through a requisite approach that conforms to sociometric principles and methodological and measurement standards. Indexical properties, formulations, and computations are discussed in detail, and the provision of sample interpretations, along with an extensive array of visuals, fosters informed implementation. A classic data set is tackled with precision regarding its conception, construction and assimilation. The questions that this data set raises proffer innovative computational advancements, serving to promote it as one of the archetypes to be used in the teaching and research of social network analysis.
