ARK Teaching Datsets
Teaching datasets
These teaching datasets are based on ARK's suite of attitudinal surveys, and provide real life data for students to explore. Each dataset is in SPSS format, and contains the full number of respondents as the original datasets. However, the number of variables has been reduced.
These resources have been designed to be used on courses teaching quantitative statistical analysis in the social sciences. Each dataset has accompanying background notes and instructions.
