jamovi

Hoping for some advice with an error message using the transform function for my uni module.

Using Jamovi in cloud.

When using transform and using ‘add recode condition’ for if/ else…. If I input a word after ‘use’ I get an error message:
Either-
1) ‘word’ does not exist in data set - if using single word
Or
2) ‘word example’ the formula is misspecified- if using 2 words

I am using the word in ‘…’ as above
The function seems to work if I use a number but not words.
I have attached some examples if this helps!

hi,

1) ‘word’ does not exist in data set - if using single word

if you want a recoded variable to take on a text value, you specify the text value with quotation marks; i.e. "word" or 'word'

if you want to refer to another variable, you surround them with backticks, i.e. `another variable`

if your case, you're using backticks rather than quotation marks.

cheers

Thank you that works!
