draw_likert: Recode a latent variable into a Likert response variable

In fabricatr: Imagine Your Data Before You Collect It

Recode a latent variable into a Likert response variable

Description

Recode a latent variable into a Likert response variable

Usage

draw_likert(
  x,
  min = NULL,
  max = NULL,
  bins = NULL,
  breaks = NULL,
  labels = NULL
)

Arguments

x	a numeric variable considered to be "latent"
min	the minimum value of the latent variable
max	the maximum value of the latent variable
bins	the number of Likert scale values. The latent variable will be cut into equally sized bins as in seq(min, max, length.out = bins + 1)
breaks	A vector of breaks. This option is useful for settings in which equally-sized breaks are inappropriate
labels	An optional vector of labels. If labels are provided, the resulting output will be a factor.

Examples

x <- 1:100

draw_likert(x, min = 0, max = 100, bins = 7)
draw_likert(x, breaks = c(-1, 10, 100))
