The built-in variable builtin_domaintable contains the domain and weight
of items for measuring early child development.
builtin_domaintableA data.frame with variables:
| Name | Label |
set | Item name, gsed lexicon |
domain | name of the developmental domain |
item | Item name, gsed lexicon |
weight | Proportional weight in domain based on expert votes |
The builtin_domaintable is created by script
data-raw/R/save_builtin_domaintable.R.
Votings are collected by Gareth MacCray in surveys administered to several subject matter experts. Each SME could attribute domains to an item, the expert could distribute their vote to multiple domains if applicable. SME votes were weighted to a proportional distribution of votes over the domains for each item.
