Question metadata (sample)
questions_sampA tibble with 30 rows, each row corresponding to a variable (column) in a particular CCES dataset. It contains metadata about the question in columns.
A unique identifier for the question. This is roughly a concatenation
of cces_year and q_code, with some standardization.
A short descriptive label of the question, based on a reading of the actual question wording.
The dataset the variable column comes from. Because the CCES is fielded
each year, this is often a year, with the exception of "cumulative"
A string of the variable as it appears in the dataset.
A classification of the response option. Currently it consists
of "yesno", "categorical" (discrete but not ordered), "ordinal"
(discrete and ordered). All of these presume a discrete response.
