Hi,

I have data from a survey.

There are three different questions, that figures as three different variables (v1, v2, v3). I have to attach different weights to these variables and then I should create a new variable formed by these three variables.

This is the concept of what stated above:

Negative reciprocity = 0.6261938/2 × Will. to punish if oneself treated unfairly (v1) + 0.6261938/2 × Will. to punish if other treated unfairly(v2) + 0.3738062 × Will. to take revenge(v3)


So, how should I do it? I have to attach firstly weights to my three variables and then "put" them in a single new variable. Or can I do everything at once?

Thank you!
