COPY OF SPECIAL LEGISLATIVE SURVEY DATA SET

Special Legislative Survey Data Set

The Special Legislative Survey included responses to questions sent to a sub-sample of the respondents who participated in the 2001-2002 general survey.

This link downloads a compressed SPSS file that includes the data, variable names, and value labels for all respondents who participated in the 2001-2002 general survey. The data elements beginning with the prefix s are the questions asked of the sub-sample. For all other cases, those data are recorded as System Missing.

This data set is raw and includes the originally coded information including coding errors that result in values outside of the appropriate range of values in some cases. It has intentionally been left this way for pedagogical purposes so that faculty using it in classes can require students to go through the process of cleaning it before using it for projects. Similarly, anyone using this data set will need to review the frequency distributions and re-code outliers as missing where they occur.
