Create meta data frame to align identical questions
Description
Qualtrics returns a data frame that has vertical "blocks", one for each "treatment condition" in an experimental condition. Researchers often want to align the questions from the blocks vertically, essentially converting the Qualtrics "wide" format to a "long" format. This is a helper function that identifies questions that may need to be stacked together. The input is a meta data structure (can be retrieved as an attribute from importQualtrics). It will find out which questions are identical and prepare to re-align ("stack") the columns.
Usage
qualtricsBlockStack(meta, questionname = "question")
Arguments
meta |
A meta data structure retrieved from importQualtrics |
questionname |
Character string for name of column in meta data that holds the questions |
Value
A new meta data table that horizontally aligns equivalent questions.
