Background to the Röder Coping Data
Data analysed in: Kroonenberg, P. M. (2008). Applied multiway data analysis. Hoboken NJ: Wiley.
The original data set consisted of 392 primary school children between
8 and 12 year-old. A subset of 14 "extreme" children were selected for several
of the analyses. The children were asked to react on 8 emotions and coping strategies
scales for each of 6 situations. The data are arranged as "three-way rating scale data"
The complete data set as well as the data set containing the data of a group of asthmatic children
can be requested from The Three-Mode Company. We also have a limited number of copies available of the
Rö (2000) thesis for researchers working in the area.

Data arrangement
A three-way data array X = (x(i,j,k)) has the following form
|-----|i=1
|-----| |i=2
|-----| | |..
| | | |..
| | |____|i=I=6 k=K=14
| |____| k=2
|_____| k=1
j=1,.,J=8
The actual data file has the following form:
j=1,.,J=8
|-----|i=1
| |i=2
| |.. k= 1
| |..
|_____|i=I=6
|-----|i=1
| |i=2
| |.. k= 2
| |..
|_____|i=I=6
|-----|i=1
| |i=2
| |.. k=14
| |..
|_____|i=I=6
Thus the first mode (i) is nested in the third mode (k) and
there are 6 (situations) times 14 (children) rows and 8 (scales)
columns.
Data handling
Preprocessing
The data can be centred and normalised in two different ways as is common for three-way rating scale data.
