metasurvey

This package provides a set of functions to facilitate the analysis of survey sampling data using meta-programming techniques. In the package you can create reproducible analysis pipelines, and easily generate reports and tables. The package is designed to work with the survey package, and it is particularly useful for complex survey designs.

Adittionally, the package provides a set of functions to facilitate the variance estimation of complex survey designs, and to facilitate the analysis of complex survey designs using the survey package.

The package is currently under development, and it is not yet available on CRAN. You can install the development version of the package using the devtools package.

Example

This is a basic example which shows you how to solve a common problem:

library(metasurvey)

# Load the data

eph2022_3 <- load_survey(
  path = load_survey_example("eph2022_3.csv"),
  svy_type = "eph",
  svy_edition = "2022_3",
  svy_weight = "PONDERA"
) %>%
  metasurvey::step_recode(
    "pea",
    ESTADO %in% 1:2 ~ 1,
    .default = 0
  ) %>%
  metasurvey::step_recode(
    "pet",
    ESTADO != 4 ~ 1,
    .default = 0
  ) %>%
  metasurvey::step_recode(
    "po",
    ESTADO == 1 ~ 1,
    .default = 0
  ) %>%
  metasurvey::step_recode(
    "pd",
    ESTADO == 2 ~ 1,
    .default = 0
  )
