Usage

rescale_subjective_urbanization(column, from = NULL, to = NULL,
  exact_from = TRUE, na_labels = c("default"), return_class = "factor")

Arguments

column	A column from a survey data with the subjective urbanization answers.
from	Defaults to c("NULL") in which case the GESIS coding in English c("Rural area or village","Small or medium-sized town", "Large town/city") will be used.
to	Defaults to NULL in which case the GESIS coding will be shortened to c("rural", "town", "city"). If you choose return_class = "numeric" the default to parameter changes to c(0,1,2).
exact_from	Deafults to TRUE. If FALSE you can use the partial matching, but beware that in this case, "twenty" will be replaced by

Examples

rescale_subjective_urbanization (c("Rural area or village",
                                   "Large town/city",
                                   "Small or medium-sized town",
