Coercion methods for labelled survey vectors

Convert labelled SPSS-style survey vectors to common R data types. These helpers provide consistent coercion behavior for `"retroharmonize_labelled_spss_survey"` objects while respecting labelled missing values.

Usage

as_numeric(x)

as_character(x)

as_factor(x, levels = "default", ordered = FALSE)

Arguments

x

A labelled survey vector created with [labelled_spss_survey()].

levels

Character string indicating how factor levels should be constructed. Currently retained for compatibility.

ordered

Logical; whether the resulting factor should be ordered. Currently ignored.

Value

* `as_numeric()` returns a numeric vector with labelled missing values converted to `NA`. * `as_character()` returns a character vector based on the factor representation of `x`. * `as_factor()` returns a factor with levels derived from value labels.
