jspmix1 | R Documentation |
An educational dataset of pupils' test scores, a subset of the Junior School Project (Mortimore et al., 1988).
A data frame with 1119 observations on the following 8 variables:
school
School identifying code.
id
Pupil identifying code.
sex
Sex of pupil; a factor with levels female
and male
.
fluent
Fluency in English indicator, where 0
= beginner, 1
= intermediate, 2
= fully fluent; measured in Year 1.
ravens
Test score, out of 40; measured in Year 1.
english
Pupils' English test score, out of 100; measured in Year 3.
behaviour
Pupils' behaviour score, where lowerquarter
= pupil rated in bottom 25%, and upper
otherwise; measured in Year 3.
cons
A column of ones. If included as an explanatory variable in a regression model (e.g. in MLwiN), its coefficient is the intercept.
A subset of the Junior School Project (Mortimore et al., 1988), the jspmix1
dataset is one of the sample datasets provided with the multilevel-modelling software package MLwiN (Rasbash et al., 2009), and is used in Browne (2012) as an example of modelling mixed responses. It consists of test scores for 1119 pupils across 47 schools. Note that the behaviour
variable originally had three categories, and the middle 50% and top 25% have been combined to produce a binary variable.)
