Description

Contains 4 SDO items measured across 5 years (1996-2000). Each item is scored on a 7-point scale.

Usage

data("SDOwave")

Format

Data frame containing 612 subjects, 4 items measure across 5 years (wide format). Here are the item labels for one year:

I1.1996

It's probably a good thing that certain groups are at the top and other groups are at the bottom.

I2.1996

Inferior groups should stay in their place.

I3.1996

We should do what we can to equalize conditions for different groups (reversed).

I4.1996

Increased social equality is beneficial to society (reversed).
