Shakespeare-Review-Reduced-Data.csvcsv2.1 MB

This CSV file contains non-qualitative question responses to the Shakespeare Review poll, including both those from the YouGov poll audience ('YG' in the Type column) and self selecting open sample ('Open' in the Type column). The data was generated by (a) reading the original SPSS data file supplied by YouGov in response to an e-mail request in R using the read.spss() function; (b) exporting this to CSV format using write.csv(); (c) removing any qualitative response rows in Open Refine (to protect respondent privacy); (d) exporting from Open Refine to CSV. The column headings can be interpreted using the Question Code List document (also supplied by YouGov). This file was prepared before the supply of First and Second survey SPSS files from which personally identifying information was removed at source by YouGov.
