On this R-data statistics page, you will find information about the unionDensity data set which pertains to cross national rates of trade union density. The unionDensity data set is found in the pscl R package. You can load the unionDensity data set in R by issuing the following command at the console data("unionDensity"). This will load the data into a variable called unionDensity. If R says the unionDensity data set is not found, you can try installing the package by issuing this command install.packages("pscl") and then attempt to reload the data. If you need to download R, you can go to the R project website. You can download a CSV (comma separated values) version of the unionDensity R data set.

Two of the predictors are highly collinear, and are the source of a debate between Stephens and Wallerstein (1991), later reviewed by Western and Jackman (1994). Usagedata(unionDensity) Format
