Anthony, Thanks for this. The issue I am having is WVS didn’t save all of their stata files, it seems, as .dta. Further, the .rdata files are not loading correctly, either, giving me .Traceback or crashes R when I try to source it. I will poke around your link to see if it can provide any in

That is not a Stata data file, but a plain text data file. You can try reading it into R like x <- read.table("WV3_Data_Russia_1995_stata_v_2014_04_28.dat", fill = TRUE) but you won't know what anything is. The metadata is in the .dct file, in a format only Stata can love... Best, Ista On Thu,
