get_missing_capl_variables {capl}

Add required CAPL-2 variables to a data frame of raw data if they are missing.

Description

This function adds required CAPL-2 variables (see Details for a full list) to a data frame of raw data if they are missing. When missing variables are added, the values for a given missing variable are set to NA. This function is called within get_capl() so that CAPL-2 score and interpretation computations will run without errors in the presence of missing variables.

Usage

get_missing_capl_variables(raw_data = NULL)
