gensex Dataset CodebookRead in the dataset using the following code.
library(tidyverse)
gensex <- readr::read_csv("https://and.netlify.app/datasets/gensex_2022.csv")The gensex data focuses on gender identity and sexual and romantic attraction. The purpose of the dataset is to explore how concepts like “gender” and “attraction” may be much more complex than typically assumed. Psychology studies frequently obtain measures of, for instance, gender identity as a categorical variable - that is, the respondent is required to choose a single label. This questionnaire investigates gender identity via rating measures for different aspects of that identity, to allow for comparison between different techniques.
Students from the 2019/2020 and 2020/2021 Psychology cohorts were invited to contribute to the questionnaire. In addition, a small number of randomly generated cases were added to the dataset in order to protect the anonymity of individuals with more easily identifiable combinations of values.
