The 160 rows are made up. No row is a real person. The data were simulated to look like the answers to 15 questions from a survey of introductory statistics students, with similar proportions and similar patterns between questions, at a smaller size. Some answers are blank, as in any survey.
Open it in Jamovi with the hamburger menu (three lines, top left), Open, then Browse.
