About
Responses collected from a public survey detailing New Year’s Resolutions for the years 2021 and 2022. The data provides valuable insight into setting resolutions, the specific categories of goals pursued (such as Health or Self improvement), reported accomplishment levels, and associated demographic factors like gender identity and generation. This dataset is fixed and will not receive future updates.
Columns
The dataset contains 10 columns, with each row representing one respondent's answers:
- State: The respondent's state of residence, indicated by a two-letter USPS abbreviation (e.g., TX, CA).
- Gender: The self-identified gender of the respondent.
- Had 2021: A binary indicator detailing whether the respondent made a New Year's resolution for 2021.
- 2021 category: The specific category of the 2021 resolution (e.g., Health).
- Accomplished 2021: A rating (on a scale of 1 to 5) indicating the degree of success achieved with the 2021 resolution.
- Have 2022: A boolean field indicating if the respondent set a New Year's resolution for 2022.
- 2022 category: The category of the respondent's 2022 resolution (e.g., Self improvement).
- Expecting to accomplish 2022: A rating (on a scale of 1 to 5) reflecting the anticipated success level for the 2022 resolution.
- Expecting to fail 2022: A boolean field indicating whether the respondent anticipates failing their 2022 resolution.
- Generation: The generation cohort of the respondent (e.g., Generation Z, Millennials).
Distribution

Usage
This data is ideal for studies focusing on behavioural science and goal setting. It is highly suitable for statistical survey analysis, comparing the types of resolutions made across different demographic groups, and assessing psychological factors influencing perceived or actual accomplishment rates between the two years (2021 and 2022).

The data spans the New Year resolution cycles for two consecutive years: 2021 and 2022. Geographically, coverage is focused on respondents primarily located in the United States, identified by their state.
