R Markdown
This is an R Markdown document. Markdown is a simple formatting syntax for authoring HTML, PDF, and MS Word documents. For more details on using R Markdown see http://rmarkdown.rstudio.com.
When you click the Knit button a document will be generated that includes both content as well as the output of any embedded R code chunks within the document. You can embed an R code chunk like this:
summary(cars)## speed dist
## Min. : 4.0 Min. : 2.00
## 1st Qu.:12.0 1st Qu.: 26.00
## Median :15.0 Median : 36.00
## Mean :15.4 Mean : 42.98
## 3rd Qu.:19.0 3rd Qu.: 56.00
## Max. :25.0 Max. :120.00Including Plots
You can also embed plots, for example:
Note that the echo = FALSE parameter was added to the
code chunk to prevent printing of the R code that generated the
plot.

Instructions: Start a new R markdown for the homework and call it “Yourlastname_Firstname_Homework_2”.
Copy everything below from Task 1 to Task 5. Keep the task prompt and questions, and provide your code and answer underneath.
Remember: you need all the steps for your code to work, including loading your data – otherwise it will not knit.
To generate a new code box, click on the +C sign above. Underneath your code, provide your answer to the task question.
When you are done, click on “Knit” above, then “Knit to Html”. Wait for everything to compile. If you get an error like “Execution halted”, it means there are issues with your code you must fix. When all issues are fixed, it will prompt a new window. Then click on “Publish” in the top right, and then Rpubs (the first option) and follow the instructions to create your Rpubs account and get your Rpubs link for your document (i.e., html link as I provide for the tutorial).
Note: Make sure to provide both your markdown file and R pubs link. If you do not submit both, you will be penalized 2 pts. out of the 5 pts. total.
Task 1
Provide code and answer.
Prompt: in the tutorial, we calculated the average trust in others for France and visualized it. Using instead the variable ‘Trust in Parliament’ (trstplt) and the country of Spain (country file provided on course website), visualize the average trust by survey year. You can truncate the y-axis if you wish. Provide appropriate titles and labels given the changes. What are your main takeaways based on the visual (e.g., signs of increase, decrease, or stall)?

trstplt = ifelse(trstplt %in% c(77, 88, 99), NA, trstplt), # set values 77, 88, and 99 to NA.

Answer Based on the visual, people in Spain’s trust in parliment starts
roughly at 3.41 and remains stable with a slight decrease in 2012
reading 1.91. In 2014, we see a rise again, in trust, that continues
until 2018 where it decreases again in 2020 close to the level it was in
2012.
Task 2
Provide answer only.
Prompt and question: Based on the figure we produced above called task2_plot, tell us: what are your main takeaways regarding France relative to Italy and Norway? Make sure to be concrete and highlight at least two important comparative trends visualized in the graph.
Answer According to task2_plot, France, in relation to Italy and Norway, exhibits feeling close to a political party much greater than Italy and Norway’s cohorts. The visual also demonstrates the stable difference in people feeling close to a political party over time across all three countries.
Task 3
Provide code and answer.
Question: What is the marginal percentage of Italian men who feel close to a particular political party?
italy_data <- read.fst("italy_data.fst")italy_data <- italy_data %>%
mutate(
gndr = case_when(
gndr == 1 ~ "Male",
gndr == 2 ~ "Female",
TRUE ~ NA_character_ # Set anything that is not 1 or 2 to NA
),
lrscale = case_when(
lrscale %in% 1 ~ "yes",
lrscale %in% 2 ~ "no",
TRUE ~ NA_character_ # Moderate (4, 5, 6) and special codes (77, 88, 99) set to NA
)
)lrscale_percentages <- italy_data %>% # Begin with the dataset 'france_data'
filter(!is.na(lrscale), !is.na(gndr)) %>% # Filter out rows where 'lrscale' or 'gender' is NA (missing data)
group_by(gndr, lrscale) %>% # Group the data by 'gender' and 'lrscale' categories
summarise(count = n(), .groups = 'drop') %>% # Summarise each group to get counts, and then drop groupings
mutate(percentage = count / sum(count) * 100) # Calculate percentage for each group by dividing count by total count and multiplying by 100
lrscale_percentages # The resulting dataframe## # A tibble: 4 × 4
## gndr lrscale count percentage
## <chr> <chr> <int> <dbl>
## 1 Female no 225 33.7
## 2 Female yes 107 16.0
## 3 Male no 248 37.1
## 4 Male yes 88 13.2Answer The marginal percentage of Italian men who feel close to a particular political party is 13.17%.
Task 4
Provide code and output only.
Prompt: In the tutorial, we calculated then visualized the percentage distribution for left vs. right by gender for France. Your task is to replicate the second version of the visualization but for the country of Sweden instead.
sweden_data <- read.fst("sweden_data.fst")sweden_data <- sweden_data %>%
mutate(
gndr = case_when(
gndr == 1 ~ "Male",
gndr == 2 ~ "Female",
TRUE ~ NA_character_ # Set anything that is not 1 or 2 to NA
),
lrscale = case_when(
lrscale %in% 0:3 ~ "Left", # Left-wing (0 to 3)
lrscale %in% 7:10 ~ "Right", # Right-wing (7 to 10)
TRUE ~ NA_character_ # Moderate (4, 5, 6) and special codes (77, 88, 99) set to NA
)
) lrscale_percentages <- sweden_data %>% # Begin with the dataset 'france_data'
filter(!is.na(lrscale), !is.na(gndr)) %>% # Filter out rows where 'lrscale' or 'gender' is NA (missing data)
group_by(gndr, lrscale) %>% # Group the data by 'gender' and 'lrscale' categories
summarise(count = n(), .groups = 'drop') %>% # Summarise each group to get counts, and then drop groupings
mutate(percentage = count / sum(count) * 100) # Calculate percentage for each group by dividing count by total count and multiplying by 100
lrscale_percentages # The resulting dataframe## # A tibble: 4 × 4
## gndr lrscale count percentage
## <chr> <chr> <int> <dbl>
## 1 Female Left 2296 23.0
## 2 Female Right 2530 25.3
## 3 Male Left 2062 20.6
## 4 Male Right 3107 31.1# Create a ggplot object for horizontal bar chart with the specified style
lrscale_plot_v2 <- ggplot(lrscale_percentages,
aes(x = percentage, # Use percentage directly
y = reorder(gndr, -percentage), # Order bars within each gender
fill = gndr)) + # Fill color based on Gender
# Create horizontal bar chart
geom_col() + # Draws the bars using the provided data
coord_flip() + # Flip coordinates to make bars horizontal
# Remove fill color legend
guides(fill = "none") + # Removes legend for the fill aesthetic
# Split the plot based on Political Orientation
facet_wrap(~ lrscale, nrow = 1) + # Separate plots for Left/Right
# Labels and titles for the plot
labs(x = "Percentage of Respondents", # X-axis label
y = NULL, # Remove Y-axis label
title = "Political Orientation by Gender", # Main title
subtitle = "Comparing the percentage distribution of left vs. right for Sweden ") + # Subtitle
# Adjust visual properties of the plot
theme(plot.title = element_text(size = 16, face = "bold"), # Format title
plot.subtitle = element_text(size = 12), # Format subtitle
axis.title.y = element_blank(), # Remove Y-axis title
legend.position = "bottom") # Position the legend at the bottom
# Display the ggplot object

Task 5
Provide code and answer: In Hungary, what is the conditional probability of NOT feeling close to any particular party given that the person lives in a rural area?
hungary_data <- read.fst("hungary_data.fst")# Recode clsprty and geo variables, removing NAs
hungary_data <- hungary_data %>%
mutate(
geo = recode(as.character(domicil),
'1' = "Urban",
'2' = "Urban",
'3' = "Rural",
'4' = "Rural",
'5' = "Rural",
'7' = NA_character_,
'8' = NA_character_,
'9' = NA_character_)
) %>%
filter(!is.na(lrscale), !is.na(geo)) # Removing rows with NA in clsprty or geohungary_data <- hungary_data %>%
filter(!is.na(clsprty)) %>%
mutate(
clsprty = case_when(
clsprty == 1 ~ "Yes",
clsprty == 2 ~ "No"
)
) %>%
filter(!is.na(clsprty))cond <- hungary_data %>%
count(clsprty, geo) %>%
group_by(geo) %>%
mutate(prob = n / sum(n))
cond## # A tibble: 4 × 4
## # Groups: geo [2]
## clsprty geo n prob
## <chr> <chr> <int> <dbl>
## 1 No Rural 6275 0.554

## 3 Yes Rural 5055 0.446
## 4 Yes Urban 2283 0.488Answer The conditional probability of not feeling close to a particular political party, given that the person lives in a rural area, is roughly 55.3%.
