2017 Twins Days Festival (TDF) Survey - Release 2

This is the second partial release of twin survey data collected at the 2017 Twins Days Festival (TDF) in Twinsburg, OH (n = 334, 138 identical pairs and 29 fraternal pairs). This release contains nine items assessing frequency of news use across multiple sources (e.g., NPR, mobile news, social media news use). In addition, 10 variables are used to assess five distinct news uses and gratifications. This dataset also includes variables measuring twin zygosity, biological sex, age, and formal educational attainment. Please review the codebook and methodology for more details and contact me if you wish to use these data for publication. More details on study methodology can be found in York (2019) and York & Haridakis (Forthcoming). More data from the study will be forthcoming.
