R bookdown files for generating descriptive statistics and illustrations for the GEAM Core questionnaire.
The GEAM is an integrated environment for carrying out survey-based gender equality audits in organizations. It aims to enable interested researchers as well as gender equality practitioners with little experience in the social sciences and survey methodology to construct high-quality questionnaires.
Documenation on the GEAM, including a manual, is available at https://geam.act-on-gender.eu.
This respository contains the R files for generating a descriptive report based upon the data generated by the GEAM Core questionnaire. This includes frequency tables for each question/item as well as illustrations. The output format is either an interactive html file or a word (docx) single file.
First, download or clone this repository and save it to a destination folder of your choice on your computer.
-
Logon to your LimeSurvey account and export the result dataset under "Responses > Responses and statistics > Export Responses". Under export format choose "R (data file)". Under "Headings" select "Question code" only. Under "Responses" use "Answer codes". Save the downloaded file in the
data-raw
folder of the report (see previous section). Don't change the name of the downloaded file. -
Export the survey structure of your questionnaire: "Display/Export > Survey structure (.lss)". Save the survey structure into the
data-raw/
folder. Do not change the default file name. -
Open
util/preprocess_lss.R
and assign your LimeSurvey ID tolsid <- 123456
. If your survey uses another language than English adjust thelsLangCode
variable accordingly (e.g.lsLangCode <- "es"
for a Spanish questionnaire.) -
"Source"
util/preprocess_lss.R
file which will construct the correctly labelled R dataframe and save it into thedata/
folder.
- Rename
config.sample.R
toconfig.R
. Open and adjust the LimeSurvey ID. - Open the
index.Rmd
file, adjust author fields and organization name. - Render the report by copy/pasting the following command in the console for a word-based report:
bookdown::render_book("index.Rmd", "bookdown::word_document2")
or an interactive, web-based format:
bookdown::render_book("index.Rmd", "bookdown::gitbook")
