Assignment 2: Description of Data
Data and Metadata
The data supplied for the assignment arises from The Australian Data Archive’s ANU Poll Dataverse [1]. As a student of the course, you are assumed to accept the Terms and Conditions of Use reproduced below. Please read them carefully. The custodian of the data has further requested you delete your data at the end of the course. However, you would be able to obtain another copy by request at the Website.
In particular, the data captures the results of a survey poll conducted in late 2023 on the topic of the 14th October 2023 Australian Constitutional Referendum on the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice to Parliament. You can find a complete description of the purpose of the poll and coding of the data (metadata) and also adescriptive summary of the poll results here:
https://dataverse.ada.edu.au/dataset.xhtml?persistentId=doi:10.26193/13NPGQ
The data is provided to you for the assignment. You have original dataset as downloaded from the ADA called 02_ANUPoll_57_CSV_100150_general.csv, in comma-separated-values format. This data is described by the metadata in 01_ANUPoll_57_DataDictionary_100150_general.xlsx and the corresponding question text in 01_ANUPoll_57_Questionnaire_100150.docx
If you are a COMP3425 (undergraduate) student, you are required to undertake some pre- processing steps as specified in the assignment specification. If you are COMP8410 (postgraduate) student you may choose your own preprocessing actions, but you may find that referring to the COMP3425 assignment specification will help you.
A Note on Data Types
Note that most of the data is either nominal or ordinal. Many ordinal variables include some marker values that are not ordinal, but indicate unordered categories as exceptions to the ordinal values. Be careful that you do not blindly handle those marker values as ordinal, and that you do not treat nominal data as ordinal without specifically justifying why you do so. Appropriate handling may depend on the mining methods you use.
You can translate a nominal variable that is, by default, loaded in Rattle as numeric, using Rattle’s “Transform” tab (Recode-> As Categoric). Alternatively you can use Excel prior to loading by following the example here:
For example, for nominal nominal p_state_sdc, the formula CONCATENATE("""",
<p_state_sdc>, """") is used. If the variable has empty cells that you want to map to the “0” nominal value, you can use the formula or CONCATENATE("""",
TEXT(<p_state_sdc>, "0"), """") . In both cases, replace the variable name, where we use <p_state_sdc> in these examples, by the Excel cell reference, such as FB2.

1. Use of the material is restricted to use for analytical purposes and that this means that I can only use the material to produce information of an analytical nature. Examples of such uses are:
(a) the manipulation of data to produce means, correlations or other descriptive summary measures;
(b) the estimation of population characteristics from sample data;
(c) the use of data as input to mathematical models and for other types of analyses (e.g. factor analysis); and
(d) to provide graphical and pictorial representation of characteristics of the population or sub-sets of the population.
