Manipulate Data with Multiple Choice Questions

Description

There were multiple-choice questions wherein more than one option was permissible i.e. check-list kind of questions. These questions needed to be brought together into a single variable at some point in the analysis. After this was done, these options were brought together into a list column. This function will expand that list column, creating new columns - one for each response.

  data,

  notReferral = multisectoral
)
