rescale_amount_3(column, from = c("Too much", "About the right amount",
  "Too little"), to = c(1, 0, -1), na_labels = "default",
  underscore = TRUE, exact_from = TRUE, return_class = "numeric")

Arguments

column

A column from a survey data frame where level of being acceptable is recorded with only three levels.

from

Defaults to c("too_much", "right_amount", "too_little".

to

Defaults to c(1,0,-1) )

na_labels

Defaults to "default"

underscore

Defaults to TRUE in which case factor names or character strings contain underscore_between_words. This is a better approach for further programming, but you can choose FALSE for nicer printing results. See examples.

exact_from

Deafults to TRUE. If FALSE you can use the partial matching, but beware that in this case, "twenty" will be replaced by

return_class

Default is "numeric", alternatives "character" or "factor".
