Practice Survey Data

A made-up dataset of 160 students that the Jamovi and Randomize guides use, with the question behind each column

The Jamovi and Randomize guides on this site use a practice dataset, so that anyone can follow along with the same numbers.

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.
