getEligXWave: Returns a dataframe with flags x wave for Short Survey...

In johninpdx/RSTools: Data Mangement Tools for RSiena and Other Network Packages

Description

The function is used to determine analyses sets (viz., by 'getNetworkSet', 'makeTVTbl', 'getFixedCovs', and 'makeCCVec').

Usage

getEligXWave(pWavVec, pSchVec)

Arguments

pWavVec	An ordered numeric vector of wave SIDs to be included in the analysis. Waves 2, 6, and 10 are summer waves; no Short Survey or Long Survey data were collected. Hence these waves should not ever be specified.
pSchVec	A numeric vector of School IDs to be included in the analysis.

Details

A sproc 'PInf1.dbo.StudentSIDInWave' in the SQL Server database PInf1 obtains eligible IDs. It is wapped by the function 'getSWNodes' in this package, called by the present function.

Value

A (#eligible SIDs x length(pWavVec)+1) dataframe. Col 1 is SID, Cols 2 on (each named 'wK', where K is the kth ordered wave in pWavVec) are flags with the integer 1 if individual SID was Short Survey (NetQ) eligible for that wave.

Examples

# Gets dataframe including SIDs for waves 1, 3, 4, and 5, schools 3-6 and
# 30 (one school district); each included SID was eligible for the Short
# survey at least once, and completed at least 1 survey in these waves.
EligXWave <- getEligXWave(c(1,3,4,5), c(3,4,5,6,30))
