Data from Australian subset of PISA 2009 data

Description

The data stem from the large-scale assessment study PISA 2009 (Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development, 2010) where competencies of 15-year-old students in reading, mathematics, and science are assessed using nationally representative samples in 3-year cycles. In this example, data from the student background questionnaire from the Australian sample of PISA 2009 were used. Only data of students with complete responses (N = 1,069) were considered.
