RIBEIRO, Filipa M.. Funds of knowledge and egonetworks: translating a methodological-theoretical framework. Sociologia [online]. 2014, vol.28, pp.193-216. ISSN 0872-3419.

These processes exist through and by means of the funds of knowledge, which can be measured and described, in its structure and content, through personal knowledge networks. Egonetworks can, thus, be defined as epistemic conduits
