#' @title Randomized Response Survey on a sensitive questions
#'  
#' @description This data set contains observations from a randomized response survey conducted in a university to sensitive questions described below.
#' The sample is drawn by simple random sampling without replacement. 
#' The randomized response technique used is the Horvitz model (Horvitz et al., 1967 and Greenberg et al., 1969) with parameter \eqn{p=0.5}.
#' Each sensitive question is associated with a unrelated question. 
#' 
#' 1. Were you born in July? with \eqn{\alpha=1/12}
#' 
#' 2. Does your ID number end in 2? with \eqn{\alpha=1/10}
#' 
#' 3. Were you born of 1 to 20 of the month? with \eqn{\alpha=20/30}
#' 
#' 4. Does your ID number end in 5? with \eqn{\alpha=1/10}
#' 
#' 5. Were you born of 15 to 25 of the month? with \eqn{\alpha=10/30}
#' 
#' 6. Were you born in April? with \eqn{\alpha=1/12}
#' 
#' @format A data frame containing a sample of 710 observations from a population of \eqn{N=10777} students.
#' The variables are:
#' \itemize{
#'  \item copied: The randomized response to the question: Have you ever copied in an exam?
#'  \item fought: The randomized response to the question: Have you ever fought with a teacher?
#'  \item bullied: The randomized response to the question: Have you been bullied? 
#'  \item bullying: The randomized response to the question: Have you ever bullied someone?
#'  \item drug: The randomized response to the question: Have you ever taken drugs on the campus? 
#'  \item sex: The randomized response to the question: Have you had sex on the premises of the university?
