Subsetting Data

# # 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
d <- subset(df, select=c(edu, income, party_rc, npi, mindful, swb))

Missing Data

# # use the gg_miss_upset() command for a visualization of your missing data
gg_miss_upset(d, 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)
# 
# # use a bit of math to see what percentage of participants had missing data
# # math will go here

Exporting Data

# # last step is to export the data after you've dropped NAs

Write-Up

We selected six variables from the [eammi2] dataset to focus on in our analysis: [DataPrepHW]. Participants with missing data (1.75%) in these six variables were dropped from our analysis, leaving us a final sample of n = [3126].
