sweden_data <- read.fst("sweden_data.fst")# Setting values greater than 10 to NA
sweden_data$trstplt <- ifelse(sweden_data$trstplt > 10, NA, sweden_data$trstplt)
sweden_data$trstprl <- ifelse(sweden_data$trstprl > 10, NA, sweden_data$trstprl)
sweden_data$trstprt <- ifelse(sweden_data$trstprt > 10, NA, sweden_data$trstprt)
# Creating and rescaling the trust variable
sweden_data$trust <- scales::rescale(sweden_data$trstplt + sweden_data$trstprl + sweden_data$trstprt, na.rm = TRUE, to = c(0, 100))
# Here's how you would "flip it" because populist is conceived by N + I as 'anti-trust'
# As Schafer explains there are some issues with that conceptualization, but N + I is also widely applied
sweden_data$populist <- scales::rescale(sweden_data$trust, na.rm = TRUE, to=c(100,0))ggplot(sweden_data, aes(x = populist)) +

labs(title = "Distribution of Populist Scale for Sweden",
x = "Populist Scale",
y = "Count")## Warning: Removed 2503 rows containing non-finite values (`stat_bin()`).
therefore, the produced histogram is right skewed meaning that populism occurs mostly at lower levels. therefore the approximate mode would be below 50.
Task 2
Run a linear regression with populist attitudes as the outcome, educational attainment (recoded as a binary “BA or more” and “No BA”), and using the Swedish data. Print the intercept and coefficients only and interpret. Then do a tidy model table displaying the p-value (with digits = 3) and interpret.
sweden_data <- sweden_data %>%
mutate(
educ.ba = case_when(
essround < 5 & edulvla == 5 ~ "BA or more",
essround >= 5 & edulvlb > 600 ~ "BA or more",
TRUE ~ "No BA"
),
edulvla = ifelse(edulvla %in% c(77, 88, 99), NA_integer_, edulvla),
edulvlb = ifelse(edulvlb %in% c(5555, 7777, 8888), NA_integer_, edulvlb),

## F-statistic: 506 on 1 and 15711 DF, p-value: < 2.2e-16therefore, the intercept is 51.35 which represents the average level of populist attitudes among people who do not have bachelors degree whereas the coefficient is -7.86 meaning that people with bachelors degrees have populist attitudes that are lower by -7.86 in comparison to people who don’t have their bachelors. we can conclude that having higher education levels is connected to lower levels of populist attitudes.
Task 3
Now using the Italian dataset and the authoritarian values scale (as we did in the tutorial), graph the average by survey year. Interpret.
italy_data <- read.fst("italy_data.fst")df <- read.fst("italy_data.fst")
df <- df %>%
mutate(behave = ipbhprp,
secure = impsafe,
safety = ipstrgv,
tradition = imptrad,
rules = ipfrule) %>%
mutate(across(c("behave", "secure", "safety", "tradition", "rules"),
~ na_if(.x, 7) %>% na_if(8) %>% na_if(9))) %>%
# Apply the reverse coding
mutate(across(c("behave", "secure", "safety", "tradition", "rules"), ~ 7 - .x ))
# Now you can calculate 'schwartzauth' after the NA recoding
df$auth <- scales::rescale(df$behave +
df$secure +
df$safety +
df$tradition +
df$rules, to=c(0,100), na.rm=TRUE)
df <- df %>% filter(!is.na(auth))

print(plot_auth)
therefore, the visualization shows a stable lien through 2012-2016, from 2016 to 2020 there is a very slight decrease which is from 75 to approximately 74.
Task 4
Now run a linear regression model, using the modelsummary package, with authoritarian values as the outcome, and generations as the predictor/potential explanatory variable, and using the Italian data again. Rename the coefficients using the coef_rename function. Interpret the coefficients, whether they are statistically significant, and the adjusted R-squared.
model_data <- df %>%
mutate(
age = ifelse(agea == 999, NA, agea),
cohort = ifelse(yrbrn < 1930 | yrbrn > 2000, NA, yrbrn),
gen = case_when(
yrbrn %in% 1900:1945 ~ "1",
yrbrn %in% 1946:1964 ~ "2",
yrbrn %in% 1965:1979 ~ "3",
yrbrn %in% 1980:1996 ~ "4",
TRUE ~ as.character(cohort)
),
gen = factor(gen,
levels = c("1", "2", "3", "4"),
labels = c("Interwar", "Baby Boomers", "Gen X", "Millennials"))
)
table(model_data$gen)##

## 1026 2580 2214 1811model1 <- lm(auth ~ gen, data = model_data)models <- list(
"model 1" = lm(auth ~ gen, data = model_data))
modelsummary(models, fmt = 1,
estimate = c("{estimate} ({std.error}){stars}"),
statistic = NULL,
coef_rename = c("genBaby Boomers" = "Baby Boomers", "genGen X" = "Gen X", "genMillennials" = "Millennials"),
title = 'Table 2. Regression models for authoritarian attitudes')| model 1 | |
|---|---|
| (Intercept) | 75.3 (0.5)*** |
| Baby Boomers | −1.1 (0.6)* |
| Gen X | −2.1 (0.6)*** |
| Millennials | −3.6 (0.6)*** |
| Num.Obs. | 7631 |
| R2 | 0.006 |
| R2 Adj. | 0.006 |
| AIC | 62934.0 |
| BIC | 62968.7 |
| Log.Lik. | −31462.009 |
| RMSE | 14.94 |
Therefore, we can see that the coefficient is negative which means that baby boomers have lower levels of authoritarianism which is by 1.1, as well there is not a trippel asterisk meaning that the value si not much lower that 0.5. As for gen x this means that it has a low authoritarianism by 2.1 than the groups. Moving on, millennials have a low authoritarianism by 3.6 compared to the groups, the three asterisks displayed indicates that coefficient is significant at the 0.001 level instead of 0.05 (*).as well the R2 value is at 0.006 which represents the proportion of vairnance in authoritarianism by generational cohorts. We can conclude that there are many factors influencing authoritarianism.
Task 5
Now visualize, using the modelplot() function from the modelsummary package, coefficient estimates and 95% confidence intervals for the following three models:
Model 1 = populist attitudes scale as the outcome; left/right as the single predictor (omitting moderates as we did in the tutorial), and using data for Greece.
Model 2 = populist attitudes scale as the outcome; gender as the single predictor, and using data for Greece.
Model 3 = populist attitudes scale as the outcome; generations as the single predictor (using the four generational category recode we did in the tutorial), and using data for Greece. Interpret.

modelplot(models, coef_omit = 'Interc')
For model 1, it is a left to right predictor, the intercept coefficient of 72,0 states the expected value of populist attitudes when the left/right score is zero. The coefficient for the ID right is -8.8(p<0,001) meaning that for every increase in the left/right score, there is a decrease of 8.8 nits in populist attitudes. The r2 means that 3.7% of the variance in populist attitudes is a result of the left/right score
For model 2, it is a genders predictor, the intercept coefficient of 70.0 is the expected value of populist attitudes for females. For gndrMale, the coefficient of -1.0 means that males have 1.0 unit lower populist attitudes compared to females. The r2 is 0 meaning that the gender variable doesnt impact varaince in populist attitudes.
For model 3, it is a generation predictor, the intercept coefficient of 65.8 stands for the value of populist attitudes for the reference generation (Interwar). The coefficients under genBaby Boomers, genGen X, millennial represent the difference compared to generation as baby boomers have 3.5 units higher in populist attitudes, gen x has 5.6 units higher and millennials have 5.8 units higher. The r2 is 0.9% representing the variance in populist attitudes by the generational categories.
