#' Meaning and Purpose in Life Data
#'
#' Study: This data includes three measures of meaning
#' and purpose in life for exploring latent variables
#' or multi-trait multi-methods analysis.

#' absolutely untrue to 7 absolutely true. These items
#' are marked with a M in the dataset. The Purpose in
#' Life Questionnaire is scaled from 1 to 7 varying by
