GESIS, Cologne. Data File Version 1.0.0, https://doi.org/10.7802/1.1982
Abstract: Here you find R code, which is used for the development and validation of measurement instruments (questionnaires, tests, items, scales) for the social sciences. The description of the analyses carried out with the codes can be found in the appendices A1 to A5 of the ZIS Publication Guide. Each code includes comments to guide users through the code. We provide the data set “example1” to run the code. We provide: Code for testing the dimensionality of scales comprises exploratory factor analysis, principal component analysis, and confirmatory factor analysis (tau-congeneric and tau-equivale ... more
