This codebook is reconstructed by the IRW from the IRW data standard and the script that built it, firstborn_personality.R. 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.
| Column | What it is | Source column |
|---|---|---|
| IRW standard columns | ||
date | IRW standard Calendar time in seconds — either seconds elapsed since data collection start (relative) or Unix time (absolute). | made in the build script |
id | IRW standard Identifier for the focal unit being measured — typically a person, but sometimes another entity (e.g., a word in a lexical task). | made in the build script |
item | IRW standard Item identifier. | item_id |
resp | IRW standard Response value. | made in the build script |
What item codes and covariate values stand for is in the source’s codebook, FBPS-ValidationData-Codebook.txt (inside FBPS-ValidationData.zip).
