In vandenman/mokken: Conducts Mokken Scale Analysis

Description

A two-level dataset with scores of 14 teachers who are rated by a group of pupils on 7 items from a Dutch Autonomy Support questionnaire (group size ranged between 5 and 39 pupils, total number of pupils is 259).

Usage

data(autonomySupport)

Format

A 259 by 8 data frame containing integers. The first column reflects a teacher indicator, the remaining columns the 7 items, see colnames(autonomySupport).

Each item has five ordered answer categories from not at all/never (score 1) to certainly/always (score 5). The items reflect several autonomy supportive behaviours from teachers.

Item	Short	Content
Item 1	Choose	The teacher lets me choose what I am going to do
Item 2	Decide	The teacher decides which task I will start with (inversely coded)
Item 3	Task	I get to choose which task I will start with
Item 4	Listen	The teacher listens to me when I disagree with something
Item 5	Help	The teacher helps me when I ask for it
Item 6	Accept	The teacher accepts me for who I am
Item 7	Understand	The teacher helps me when I do not understand a task

Source

The seven items are a subset from a self-constructed 27-item questionnaire on teacher's autonomy support. Data were collected and made available by L. Koopman from the University of Amsterdam.
