The prompt asks you to rate your level of agreement with the statement: 'Eating a mint helped my performance on this test.' 
Option 1: 'Agree' — This would express that you believe eating a mint improved your performance. Such a response would only be appropriate if you actually ate a mint and perceived a performance boost; otherwise, selecting this option could reflect a misattribution or a belief without evidence.
Option 2: 'Neither agree nor disagree' — This is a neutral stance, indicating uncertainty or ambivalence about whether a mint affected performance. It might be chosen if you are unsure about any effect or if you do not want to commit to a directional judgment.
Option 3: 'Disagree' — Choosing this would mean you think a mint did not help (or perhaps hindered) your performance. As with the 'Agree' option, this relies on a personal belief about the mint’s effect, which should be grounded in actual experience; otherwise it could misrepresent the data.
Option 4: 'NA - I did not eat a mint.' — This code is used to mark missing or inapplicable data due to not eating a mint. It signals that there is no information to assess the mint’s impact, which is appropriate when the participant did not consume a mint.
In contexts like survey data, the presence of 'NA - I did not eat a mint' is important because it prevents forcing a directional judgment when no exposure occurred. If you did not eat a mint, any implied effect on performance cannot be validly inferred from your own experience, so using the NA option preserves data integrity. Conversely, selecting 'Agree' or 'Disagree' without having eaten a mint would conflate missing data with attitude toward impact, which could bias results. The neutral option remains a valid path if you are uncertain about the effect or about your experience. The key distinction is that the NA option explicitly communicates a lack of exposure rather than a stance on the mint’s effectiveness.
