Data Paired Comparisons: Training Delivery Modes 2

Description

A study of n=207 persons (that belong to the 4 main learning types by Kolb) in the labour market training (AMS) to explore preferences for training delivery modes like computer-based (CO), TV-based (TV), paper-based (GL), audio-based (AU) and classroom-based (UV) training by using paired comparison models including the subject covariates sex, learning style by David A. Kolb (Lerntypen), education (edu3), and age (alter_kat).

Usage

data(trdeliv2)

Format

A data frame with 207 observations on the following 14 variables.

V1

comparison between CO and TV; 1= object 1 preferred, 2= object 2 preferred

V2

comparison between CO and GL; 1= object 1 preferred, 2= object 2 preferred

V3

comparison between TV and GL; 1= object 1 preferred, 2= object 2 preferred

V4

comparison between CO and AU; 1= object 1 preferred, 2= object 2 preferred

V5

comparison between TV and AU; 1= object 1 preferred, 2= object 2 preferred

V6

comparison between GL and AU; 1= object 1 preferred, 2= object 2 preferred

V7

comparison between CO and UV; 1= object 1 preferred, 2= object 2 preferred

V8

comparison between TV and UV; 1= object 1 preferred, 2= object 2 preferred

V9

comparison between GL and UV; 1= object 1 preferred, 2= object 2 preferred

V10

comparison between AU and UV; 1= object 1 preferred, 2= object 2 preferred

Lerntypen

1=accomodator, 2=diverger, 3=converger, 4=assimilator

sex

1=male, 2=female

edu3

1=compulsory school, 2=middle education without high school graduate, 3=high school graduate or higher

alter_kat

1=teenagers up to 20 years, 2=young adults 21-29 years, 3=adults from 30 years

Details

In this study the subject covariate Lerntypen contains 4 groups - only the main learning styles. The subject covariate education (edu3) consists of 3 categories.
