Thanks, I have a problem : jamovi says that "circular reference is detected" when I try to transform my nominal variables... How can I do to fix that ?

[@drj.psychology]

I have never seen that error message before- I have no idea! If I can find a way to replicate that, I will do a how-to video on how to fix it. I'll add it to my list! :)

[@nadiailias3629]

After hours of searching, I found, you just have to change the name of the variable which must be transformed

[@nadiailias3629]

I have another question: when I finished transforming my variables, one duplicated itself and made the other disappear. How to find the original variables without losing all the coding?

I'm having a problem where I have a variable that is already numbers, but for some reason it's classed as ordinal in jamovi. When I try and run certain analyses it tells me to change it to numeric data using "as.numeric" but I can't figure out how to do this...do you have any suggestions?
