Arguments

dir	The path to the directory containing the subfolders for each wave. This is named "stata13_se" when downloading from UKDS.
wave	A whole number indicating the desired wave of Understanding Society data.
vars	A character vector containing the desired variables. Variables should be specified without the "w_" prefix and "pidp" is included by default. If an empty vector is provided, all variables will be returned.
long	The format of the output. If TRUE, all variable "w_" prefixes are removed and a column is added indicating the numerical wave of the data.

Value

A tibble containing individual response data for the desired wave and variables.
