4/ The goal: make it easier to go from raw AmericasBarometer data to consistent, design-effects-aware results and clear visualizations.
If you work on public opinion or survey research in Latin America, we’d love your feedback on what’s useful—and what’s missing.
1/ If you work with #AmericasBarometer data in R, you’ve probably rebuilt the same workflow over & over: labels, weights, rescaling, plots, exports.
We built the lapop R package to make these workflows faster, cleaner, & reproducible.
