Topic: Recode Values
When exporting data for statistical analysis or creating visualizations, text data complicates the process by being inconsistent when compared across different responses.
Recode values resolve this issue by automatically assigning a numerical value to each answer choice sequentially & transforming the text answer choices to quantitative data. These values stop updating to reflect the new answer choice order once you start collecting responses; however, they can always be manually modified to align with your desired statistical analysis. If you want to have both text data & recode values, you can also change the variable names which are the labels of the choices when you export in choice text format.
Facilitate your statistical analysis & quantify your data by using recode values today!
