Our OCTOBER 2021 through JANUARY 2022 contests use data from [Goyette & Spencer (2021)][1].
https://osf.io/v4yhu/ contains information about the study.
https://osf.io/9chb7/ contains an SPSS (.sav) file, that can be imported into R using the "foreign" package. [Here are instructions on doing this][2].
CONTEST: **October** **2021**
Your tasks for the PsiChiR contest include:
Level 1: Remove participants who say they are in a relationship (using variable “RelStatus”, 1 = Single, 2 = in a relationship)
Level 2: Compute Mean and SD for the variable “Age”
Level 3: Create a scatterplot plotting “Age” against “HCTotal”
Level 4: Correlate “Age” with “HCTotal” (the extent to which participants endorse hookup culture)
______________________
In order to complete each level, you need to complete all levels before (so in order to complete level 4, you also need to do 1, 2, and 3 correctly).
