Abstract
The concept of structural centrality in a weakly connected digraph is considered. Some requirements for the pointcentrality and for the centrality index are proposed and a construction satisfying the requirements is given. Several examples are calculated.

An index of centrality is presented which is based on the incidence matrix of actual communications rather than on the deviation matrix of possible communications, as in the Bavelas Index of Centrality.
