I am new in Stack overflow. I have some experience in R but not a lot. I guess what I want to achieve is pretty simple but I do not know how to get it.
I have a data frame that consists of four columns: Participant ID, Trial ID, Question ID and Outcome. In a simplified version it looks like this:
Participant Trial Question Outcome
P01 T01 Q01 PASS
P01 T01 Q02 PASS
P01 T02 Q01 FAIL
P01 T02 Q02 FAIL
P01 T03 Q01 FAIL
P01 T03 Q02 PASS
P02 T01 Q01 FAIL
P02 T01 Q02 PASS
P02 T02 Q01 PASS
P02 T02 Q02 PASS
P02 T03 Q01 FAIL
P02 T03 Q02 PASS
P03 T01 Q01 FAIL
P03 T01 Q02 FAIL
P03 T02 Q01 PASS
P03 T02 Q02 PASS
P03 T03 Q01 PASS
P03 T03 Q02 FAIL
How can I get a table in which I can see the number of "PASS" questions per trial and participant. Something that looks like this:
T01 T02 T03
P01 2 0 1
P02 1 2 1
P03 0 2 1
If I use the "table" function I get only the frequency with which each combination of participant and trial appear in the rows of the data frame.
Any ideas? Thank you in advance.
Subset the data for "PASS" value and then use table
:
temp <- subset(df, Outcome == 'PASS')
table(temp$Participant, temp$Trial)
# T01 T02 T03
# P01 2 0 1
# P02 1 2 1
# P03 0 2 1
