Data summary: Pre-Study Abroad

Summary
The pre-SA dataset contains 179 observations and 170 variables. The dataset contains responses from two waves of data collection (2020 and 2023) from three 1st-year student cohorts. It also includes the data from the sector-wide data collection wave, not only the data from York St John University students. The Data Preparation Report page provides details on how the dataset has been prepared from the raw data downloaded from Qualtrics™. This page provides a summary of the dataset in two forms. The summary codebook list essential details about the variable names, the survey questions (label), the response rate on each quetionnaire item, the item options (levels) and the range of responses, as well as a summary plot of the distribution of the responses. The detailed codebook shows similar but complementary information, with a more detailed frequency tabulation of the categorical variables.

Variable Label Responses Levels (range)a Plotb
a Number of levels (response options) in the variable with the range of levels in parantheses. For numeric variables coding the length of textual answers to the open-ended survey questions (the variables with names ending with the "_nwords" suffix) the wordcount is shown. For categorical variables, it lists the first and last response options in the questionnaire order. Not all the levels counted have a valid response in the data.
b The plots show the distribution of the variables as box plots for categorical and numerical variables. For variables with a single unique value, it plots the number of 'yes'/'true' values out of the total as a horizontal stacked bar plot, which essentially visualises the response proportion shown in the *Responses* column. For variables with more that five response categories the plot includes a vertical red line representing the median response.
