LikertMakeR: Synthesise and Correlate Likert Scale and Rating-Scale Data Based on Summary Statistics

Generate and correlate synthetic Likert and rating-scale questionnaire responses with predefined means, standard deviations, Cronbach's Alpha, Factor Loading table, coefficients, and other summary statistics. It can be used to simulate Likert data, construct multi-item scales, generate correlation matrices, and create example survey datasets for teaching statistics, psychometrics, and methodological research. Worked examples and documentation are available in the package articles, accessible via the package website, <https://winzarh.github.io/LikertMakeR/>.
