Degree Centrality and negative correlations

Hi,

I would like to know whether the Degree Centrality calculation is based on positive correlations only, or also on negative correlations? If I set a correlation threshold of r=0.2 will it take the absolute values of correlation and include negative correlations as well? If no, is there a way to calculate DC taking into account both positive and negative correlations at the same time? 

Kind regards,
