calc_emo_support: Calculate Emotional Support Score

Description

This function computes an emotional support score on a 0-100 scale based on survey responses. The score is the mean of four specific item scores, with higher scores indicating more emotional support.

Usage

calc_emo_support(survey_df)

Value

A data frame with two columns: `person_id` and `emo_support`, where `emo_support` is the calculated emotional support score for each participant. Participants who did not answer all four questions will have an NA score.

Arguments

survey_df

A data frame containing survey data with at least three columns: `person_id`, `question_concept_id`, and `answer_concept_id`.

Examples

# Create a sample survey data frame
survey_df <- data.frame(
  person_id = rep(1:3, each = 4),
  question_concept_id = rep(c(40192399, 40192439, 40192446, 40192528), times = 3),
  answer_concept_id = sample(c(40192454, 40192518, 40192486, 40192382, 40192521),
                             12, replace = TRUE)
)

# Compute emotional support scores
emo_support_scores <- calc_emo_support(survey_df)
head(emo_support_scores)
