#' Education Categories for the United States in the World Values Survey
#'
#' This is a simple data set that summarizes what the education codes are in the World Values Survey for the United States.
#'
#'
#' @format A data frame with 42 observations the following 6 variables.
#' \describe{
#' \item{\code{x025}}{the numeric code for supposedly the highest educational level attained}
#' \item{\code{x025cswvs}}{the numeric code for supposedly the education-level attained by the respondent, with country-specific categories}
#' \item{\code{n}}{the number of observations in the World Values Survey with that unique \code{x025cswvs} code}
#' \item{\code{x025cswvsmeaning}}{the meaning behind the unique \code{x025cswvs} code}
#' \item{\code{x025meaning}}{the meaning behind the unique \code{x025} code}
#' \item{\code{educat}}{a standardized categorical variable corresponding with that unique \code{x025cswvs} code}
#' }
#'
#' @details Observations taken from the combined seven waves of survey data made available by the World Values Survey, but isolated to
#' just the United States. The World Values Survey unfortunately did not collect information about the education-level of the respondent
#' in the 1981 and 1990 waves. These education categories feature in the Miller and Davis (2020) article in \emph{Journal of
#' Ethnicity, and Politics}, albeit before the release of the seventh wave.
