You will each enter five lines of data that you need
to e-mail to me no later than 8:00 p.m. on Sunday 10/15.
Each variable should have one space between
it and the next variable. At the end of each line of data, hit return
and start a new line for the next subject. There is no need to skip
lines between each subject�s data.
Each line of data should have 22 numbers,
one for each of the 21 variables we measured, and one for your ID# which
will be assigned in class.
***Missing data should be recorded as 999.***
Variable Number What You Need To Do
Legal Opinions
Just type what they wrote down. If you can't read it and you can't
(1-12 on front)
guess what it says, record it as missing data (as if it were left blank).
If they write a number not between 1 and 9, record that as missing also.
Racial Attitudes
Same as above. Just type what they write down.
(1-6 on back page)
Age Type what they write down in years. If someone is precise enough to list months, use decimal points.
Gender
Record gender as follows: Male = 0
Female = 1
Race Record race as follows:
White/Caucasian = 1
Black/African-American = 2
Asian/Asian-American = 3 Latino/Hispanic
= 4
Arab-American = 5
Indian = 6
Native American = 7
Mixed Race = 8
Other = 9
This is not a value judgment about other races not being important, but
we can only have so many
categories. If I omitted your race, the race of your participants,
or forced you to categorize yourself in a
manner you're uncomfortable with, I apologize�
Experimenter ID#
This will be a number 1-23 that I will assign to you in class. All
five of your data lines will have the same ID#
Here's an example of what one of your five lines of data might look like in your email to me.
3 5 2 9 1 2 2 999 4 5 9 2 9 1 1 3 6 3 28 0 1 18
(note that this subject must've left legal
opinion #8 blank, thus the 999)
