[R] likert Package

[Richard M. Heiberger]

most likely you have a factor with default levels which are not
ordered the way you want them to be ordered.
You can reorder the levels with the factor function.  If you still
need help after adjusting the order of the levels, then
please send the data to the list by including the output of
dput(data)
in the body of your email.

The name "data" is a bad name for your dataset as it conflicts with
the data function and the data= argument
to many functions.
