DATA CLEANING FOR THE SCHWARTZ VALES SURVEY<br />

These procedures are those specified by Schwartz in the Draft Users’ Manual for the<br />

SVS.<br />

1. Subjects who leave 15 or more items blank are to be dropped from the analysis.<br />

2. Subjects who use a particular scale anchor 35 times or more should be dropped;<br />

e.g., if the anchor point “3” is selected 35 times or more by a subject that subject<br />

would be excluded from the analysis.<br />

3. In calculating dimension scores, if greater than 30% <strong>of</strong> the items are missing for<br />

a scale, drop that subject; e.g., for a 3 or 5-item scale, if two items are missing,<br />

drop the subject.<br />

4. Subjects who had an identifiable repeated pattern <strong>of</strong> responses were dropped<br />

from the analysis.<br />
