C) I chose to deal with the missing data by recoding for different variable. This was done to ensure both old and new data could be accessed if needed (going back to different coding schemes)
D) i. I choose to recode by different variable. This was done in case I had to go back and do a different coding scheme later ii. I choose to recode by different variable. This was done because I had to go back and do a different coding scheme later (refer to SPSS outuput)
