datap

<code>datap</code> is a panel data frame, that was produced with <code>plm</code>{pdata.frame}. It is used as testdataset for the R package <code>bdynsys</code>. It contains 7 variables. The first is the panel_id variable with year and country specification. The six other variables are: EmanzV (emancipative values, based on WorldValueSurvey), SeculTradV (secular_vs_traditional values, based on WorldValueSurvey), SurvSelfV (survival_vs_selfexpression values, based on WorldValueSurvez), DemocrH (human-rights weighted democracy index, based on Freedom House data), GDP (GDP per capita, based on World Bank data) and logGDP (logged and rescaled (0-1) GDP per capita).

datasets

The package bdynsys for panel/longitudinal data combines methods to model 
             changes in up to four indicators over times as a function of the indicators
             itself and up to three predictors using ordinary differential equations 
             (ODEs) with polynomial terms that allow to model complex and nonlinear 
             effects. A Bayesian model selection approach is implemented. The package 
             provides also visualisation tools to plot phase portraits of the dynamic 
             system, showing the complex co-evolution of two indicators over time with the
             possibility to highlight trajectories for specified entities (e.g. countries, 
             individuals). Furthermore the visualisation tools allow for making 
             predictions of the trajectories of specified entities with respect to the 
             indicators.
