EdSurvey: an R package to analyze large-scale educational assessments data from NCES

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: The EdSurvey package helps users download, explore variables in, extract data from, and run analyses on large-scale assessment data. The analysis functions in EdSurvey account for the use of plausible values for test scores, survey sampling weights, and their associated variance estimator. We describe the capabilities of the package in the context of the 2019 National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) High School Transcript Study.
