Anthony, Thanks for this. The issue I am having is WVS didn’t save all of their stata files, it seems, as .dta. Further, the .rdata files are not loading correctly, either, giving me .Traceback or crashes R when I try to source it. I will poke around your link to see if it can provide any in

That is not a Stata data file, but a plain text data file. You can try reading it into R like x <- read.table("WV3_Data_Russia_1995_stata_v_2014_04_28.dat", fill = TRUE) but you won't know what anything is. The metadata is in the .dct file, in a format only Stata can love... Best, Ista On Thu,

Ista, I am pulling multiple countries and multiple waves, but here is one country in one wave. I know if I can get one to work, I can get them all to work. I have used WVS data in the past and never encountered any issues, so I am at a loss here. Thanks again! http://www.worldvaluessurvey.o

Hello, Ista. Honestly, I am uncertain. I don't have STATA -- I downloaded this from the data source website. I can't imagine it is 13 because the data are old (2006). I tried package readstata13 out of desperation, but didn't think it would resolve. Thanks for the suggestion! Sent from

Hello, I recently updated to the newest version of R and I am encountering issues. Please find my error and session info below. My data are attached. I have tried the readstata13 package just in case to no avail. Unless I am missing something, google isn’t helping. Thank you in advance.
