12,069 responses from 2,423 respondents to 5 items.
One of 5 tables from the same source; this one is the mlq_presence table. The others are listed under Related tables.
| Description | Meaning in Life Questionnaire, presence-of-meaning subscale: items 1, 4, 5, 6 and 9 of the published instrument on a 1-7 scale, 2,423 respondents, 12,069 responses. Item codes keep the published numbering rather than being renumbered 1-5, so they still point at the source item. From the OSF deposit's SPSS file, April 2020, Leger LEO probability-based Canadian panel. Raw item columns only: the deposit's reverse-scored copies (suffix _r) and its per-scale composite (the bare prefix column) are excluded. Missing responses are genuine and dropped, not imputed -- the paper describes no imputation. |

This codebook is reconstructed by the IRW from the IRW data standard and the script that built it, amiot_2022_pets.py. It is our best reading, not the source’s own codebook, and it may contain mistakes. Where the two disagree, the source data are the authority. If you find an error, please tell us.
