Data Prep

Load Libraries

# if you haven't run this code before, you'll need to download the below packages first
# instructions on how to do this are included in the video
# but as a reminder, you use the packages tab to the right

library(psych) # for the describe() command
library(naniar) # for the gg_miss-upset() command
library(expss) # for the cross_cases() command
## Loading required package: maditr
## 
## To aggregate data: take(mtcars, mean_mpg = mean(mpg), by = am)
## 
## Use 'expss_output_rnotebook()' to display tables inside R Notebooks.
##  To return to the console output, use 'expss_output_default()'.
## 
## Attaching package: 'expss'
## The following object is masked from 'package:naniar':
## 
##     is_na

Import Data

# for the lab, you'll import the CSV file you downloaded along with the current file we're working in (an RMD file)
# for the homework, you'll download the CSV file from your chosen README page (should be titled arc_data_final.csv or eammi2_data_final.csv)
df <- read.csv(file="DATA/eammi2_data_final.csv", header=T)

# these are commands useful for viewing a dataframe

Subsetting Data

# for the HW: use the codebook you created in the codebook activity to get the names of your variables (first column)
# enter this list of names in the select=c() argument to subset those columns from the dataframe
# variables for the lab: id, variable2, variable3, variable5, variable8, variable10, variable11
d <- subset(df, select=c(gender, income, moa_maturity, idea, support, npi))
# this is where I will list my own variables, very important!

Recoding Variables

# categorical variables need to be recoded as factors
# the content of the variable will stay the same, but R will treat the variable differently at times
d$gender <- as.factor(d$gender)
d$income <- as.factor(d$income)

str(d)
## 'data.frame':    3182 obs. of  6 variables:
##  $ gender      : Factor w/ 3 levels "f","m","nb": 1 2 2 1 2 1 1 1 1 1 ...
##  $ income      : Factor w/ 4 levels "1 low","2 middle",..: 1 1 4 4 2 4 1 1 3 4 ...

Missing Data

We lose 71 data, and current sample size is 3111.31 participants skip question about moa_maturity; 21 participants skip questions about income. Those scenarios are worth to be discussed.

# use the gg_miss_upset() command for a visualization of your missing data
gg_miss_upset(d[-1], nsets = 6)

# use the na.omit() command to create a new dataframe in which any participants with missing data are dropped from the dataframe
d2 <- na.omit(d)
3111/3182
## [1] 0.977687
0.978
## [1] 0.978

Exporting Data

# last step is to export the data after you've dropped NAs
# for the HW, the file you're exporting here is what you'll use for all future HW assignments (labs will use the files I provide you)
# make sure you give it a name that is memorable!
# and make sure you save it to your Data folder!
write.csv(d2, file="DATA/eammi2_data_final_cleaned.csv", row.names = F)

# since we've created a cleaned dataframe in d2, we'll use that for the rest of the lab/HW

Univariate Normality

Talk about skew and kurtosis here: we analyzed the skew and kurtosis of our variables and all were wthin the acceptance range (-2 to +2) except to the kurtosis of “idea”, which is 4.48.However, for this analysis, we will use them anyway.
