Dear Areti,

this dcast data.frame presents the same 
info as Jim's barplot

        reshape2::dcast(data=scrounging, formula=behav~substr, 
fun.aggregate=length)

yielding

             behav air ground tree vine
        1   active   5      4    3    3
        2 foraging   2      1    3    4
        3 inactive   0      4    4    5
        4 snoozing   3      5    1    3

I tried to use likert by the example in 
the example in ?likert::likert

        library(likert)
        data(pisaitems)
        items29 <- pisaitems[,substr(names(pisaitems), 1,5) == 'ST25Q']
        names(items29) <- c("Magazines", "Comic books", "Fiction",
                           "Non-fiction books", "Newspapers")
        l29 <- likert(items29)
        l29
        lapply(items29, levels)

like this 

        u <- unique(scrounging$behav)
        levels.behav <- c("inactive", u[u!="inactive"])
        scrounging$behav <- factor(x=scrounging$behav, levels=levels.behav)
        u <- unique(scrounging$substr)
        levels.substr <- c("ground", u[u!="ground"])
        scrounging$substr <- factor(x=scrounging$substr, levels=levels.substr)
        likert::likert(scrounging)

yielding

            Item inactive active foraging snoozing
        1  behav       36     20       20       24
        2 substr       20     28       30       22

but I doubt this is meaningful ... 

Best,
Rasmus
