Hello everyone!
just needed to merge variables to one.
The cases are the following:
I have Two categorical variables "trauma exposure during pandemic (0=no, 1=yes)" and "trauma exposure before pandemic (0=no, 1= yes)"
I wish to
α) transform them to ONE categorical variable called: Νο Trauma Exposure (=0) and Trauma Exposure (=1) and,
b) to make a new categorical variable (with 2 categories), which will include only the Trauma Exposure during the pandemic and the Trauma exposure before the pandemic, and
c) in combination with the variable PTSD at risk (=1) and PTSD not at risk (=0) to make a new variable which will include the following three categories:
1. Νο Trauma Exposure
2. Trauma Exposure at risk for PTSD
3. Trauma Exposure not at risk for PTSD.
Could anyone help me with this?
Many thanks in advance!
