code.reverse: Reverse Coding of Scales

In Aaron0696/aaRon: Personal Package of Home-Brewed Functions

Reverse Coding of Scales

Description

Implements reverse-coding of items using factor(). One advantage over psych::reverse.code() is that input need not be numeric.

Usage

code.reverse(vector, original_levels)

Arguments

vector	A numeric, character or factor vector.
original_levels	A character vector denoting the order of the original scale (lowest level on the left)

Value

Returns a factor vector of the same length as vector with reverse-coded responses, with levels corresponding to original_level

Examples

mydata <- data.frame(myscale = c("Disagree", "Neutral", "Agree", "Neutral","Agree"))
code.reverse(vector = mydata$myscale, original_levels = c("Disagree","Neutral","Agree"))
