Description

This is a dataset used for the online stats training website (https://www.rensvandeschoot.com/tutorials/) and is based on the data used by  van de Schoot, van der Velden, Boom, and Brugman (2010).

The dataset is based on a study that investigates an association between popularity status and antisocial behavior from at-risk adolescents (n = 1491), where gender and ethnic background are moderators under the association. The study distinguished subgroups within the popular status group in terms of overt and covert antisocial behavior.For more information on the sample, instruments, methodology, and research context, we refer the interested readers to van de Schoot, van der Velden, Boom, and Brugman (2010).
