Score the Relationship and Sex Education (RSE) scale

Description

Score the Relationship and Sex Education (RSE) scale

Usage

score_rse(
  df,
  item_prefix = "RSE",
  max_impute = 0.2,
  drop_items = FALSE,
  keep_reverse_codes = FALSE,
  min_value = 1,
  max_value = 4
)

Arguments

df	a data.frame containing the 10 RSE items to be scored
item_prefix	a character prefix of the items names in df to be scored. Default: "RSE"
max_impute	the proportion of missingness [0..1) or number [1..n] of missing values per scale. Below this threshold, the person subscale mean will be imputed for missing items.
drop_items	whether to remove the item-level data from the df. Default: FALSE
keep_reverse_codes	whether to retain the reverse coded items (suffix "r")
min_value	the minimum value for the item anchors, used in reverse scoring. Default: 1
max_value	the highest value for the item anchors, used in reverse scoring. Default: 4

Details

Adds one column, RSE_total, to df containing the sum of scores.

Note: the default RSE scoring uses the mean of the items for the scales.

Note: the code assumes that pasting together the item_prefix and the numbers 1:10 will yield the 10 items from the test.
