This is not really the correct forum, but very briefly, and in rough order of complexity, you can do a summary (which counts the occurences of the categories in a factor), you could look at crosstabulations of questions (e.g ?table, ?tabulate, ?chisq.test), and also measures of association in tables.
If you have some ordered factors, there are somewhat different considerations (and different measures of association) than if they're all unordered. What analysis you might do depends on what questions you want to answer. -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Analyzing-non-numerical-data-tp2124603p2124816.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
