Usage

isSurveyEndBeforeItStarts(
  ds = NULL,
  surveyConsent = NULL,
  dates = NULL,
  reportingColumns = c(enumeratorID, uniquerespondantID),
  deleteIsSurveyEndBeforeItStarts = FALSE
)

Arguments

ds

dataset containing the survey (from kobo): labelled data.frame

surveyConsent

name of the field in the dataset where the survey consent is stored: string

dates

name of the fields where the information about the start and end date of the survey is stored: list of string (c('start_date','end_date'))

reportingColumns

(Optional, by default it is built from the enumeratorID and the uniquerespondantID) name of the columns from the dataset you want in the result: list of string (c('col1','col2',...))

deleteIsSurveyEndBeforeItStarts

(Optional, by default set as FALSE) if TRUE, the survey in error will be marked as 'deletedIsSurveyEndBeforeItStarts': boolean (TRUE/FALSE)

consentForValidSurvey

value defined in the kobo form to acknowledge the surveyed person gave his consent: string

uniquerespondantID

name of the field where the survey unique ID is stored: string

enumeratorID

name of the field where the enumerator ID is stored: string

Value

result a list that includes: * dst same dataset as the inputed one but with survey marked for deletion if errors are found and delete=TRUE (or NULL) * ret_log list of the errors found (or NULL) * var a list of value (or NULL) * graph graphical representation of the results (or NULL)

Examples

load(system.file("sample_dataset.RData", package = "HighFrequencyChecks")) 
ds <- sample_dataset
surveyConsent <- "survey_consent"
dates <- c("survey_start","end_survey")
uniquerespondantID <- "X_uuid"
enumeratorID <- "enumerator_id"
reportingColumns <- c(enumeratorID, uniquerespondantID)

result <- isSurveyEndBeforeItStarts(ds = ds,
                                    surveyConsent=surveyConsent,
                                    dates=dates,
                                    reportingColumns=reportingColumns,
                                    deleteIsSurveyEndBeforeItStarts=FALSE)
