Checkbox question attributes missing

[mnoetel]

Somewhere between cleaning boxes and merging to saved attributes all the attributes for the boxes disappear

saved_attributes$w4_wkex_trans_int_9 d6_boxes$w4_wkex_trans_int_9

Note this is not only the checkbox attributes; lots of attributes are missing - e.g.,

str(d$gender)
 Factor w/ 3 levels "Male","Female",..: 2 2 2 2 1 2 2 2 1 2 ...

I have used sjlabelled::copy_labels if the variable names are the same, because sometimes subsetting or otherwise manipulating the data removes the labels.

d$gender <- set_label(d$gender, "Gender")
> str(d$gender)
 Factor w/ 3 levels "Male","Female",..: 2 2 2 2 1 2 2 2 1 2 ...
 - attr(*, "label")= chr "Gender"
> d_wave3 <- d %>% filter(wave == 3)
> str(d_wave3$gender)
Factor w/ 3 levels "Male","Female",..: 2 2 2 2 1 2 2 2 1 2 ...
> d_wave3 <- d_wave3 %>% copy_labels(d)
> str(d_wave3$gender)
 Factor w/ 3 levels "Male","Female",..: 2 2 2 2 1 2 2 2 1 2 ...
 - attr(*, "label")= chr "Gender"

Thanks Zan, part of the problem was dplyr was out of date and filter removed labels. Most vars now have labels: names(d)[null_attributes] [1] "beh_handwash" "origin" "wave" "info_need_symptoms"
