SWMD: SWMD Data Subset

In vandenman/mokken: Conducts Mokken Scale Analysis

Description

A subset of the COOL5-18 data (see below) with scores of 651 pupils nested in 30 classes on the 7-item Schaal Welbevinden Met Docenten [Scale Well-Being With Teachers] (Peetsma, Wagenaar, & de Kat, 2001; Zijsling, Keuning, Keizer-Mittelhauser, Naaijer, & Timmermans, 2017). R-code to get this subsample is available as online supplement to Koopman, Zijlstra, & Van der Ark (2020).

Usage

data(SWMD)

Format

A 651 by 8 data frame containing integers. The first column reflects a class indicator, the remaining columns the 7 items, see colnames(SWMD).

Details

Each item has five ordered answer categories from not true at all (score 0) to completely true (score 4).

Item	Short	Content
Item 1	lv_wdo1	The teachers usually know how I feel
Item 2	lv_wdo2	I can talk about problems with the teachers
Item 3	lv_wdo3	If I feel unhappy, I can talk to the teachers about it
Item 4	lv_wdo4	I feel at ease with the teachers
Item 5	lv_wdo5	The teachers understand me
Item 6	lv_wdo6	I have good contact with the teachers
Item 7	lv_wdo7	I would prefer to have other teachers (inversely coded)

The items were translated from Dutch. For the original items, see p. 79 in Zijsling et al. (2017).
