Data from Dutch respondents of the European Social Survey (ESS) on the Basic Human Values scale (Schwartz, 2007).
data(essbhv)A data frame with 1690 rows and 10 variables:
ESS id number
Happiness from 0 (extremely unhappy) to 10 (extremely happy).
Self-reported level of how religious one is from 0 (not at all) to 10 (very religious).
Age in years.
Highest level of education completed on an 18-point scale.
Angle on the Basic Human Values scale in radians from -pi to pi.
theta plus pi.
thetapos converted to degrees.
This dataset includes a circular outcome extracted from the Basic Human Values scale. Note that the extraction of a single circular value as the most salient human value is somewhat of an oversimplification from a theoretical perspective. It is given here because it is nevertheless meaningful as well as useful for illustration purposes.
In addition to the circular outcome, some covariates are included. For further details on the variables included, see the ESS documentation.
