Balance 'meta' randomization in survey flow

Hello,Apologies if this has been asked before, I wasn't sure exactly what to search for to find the answer.I have a survey design where participants are randomly assigned to one of 3 conditions, which I have set using embedded data. Then, they will view 4 different videos of two people labelling an object. For each video, either Person A speaks first, or Person B speaks first. So, I actually have a total of 8 videos; two for each object, one where Person A speaks first, and one where Person B speaks first. Right now, each of the 8 videos + associated follow up questions is in it's own block (so Block 1 = Object X, Person A speaks first, Block 2 = Object X, Person B speaks first, Block 3 = Object Y, Person A speaks first, Block 4 = Object Y, Person B speaks first etc etc for 4 objects).I would like to set up the survey flow such that each participant always see two videos of Person A speaking first, and two videos of Person B speaking first. It doesn't matter which of the 4 objects has

How to I ask "How Long"/Duration Questions--not date based but numeric based

So most of my questions are along the lines of "how long did you spend..." or "how long did it take..."I'm not really interested in dates. I want answers in formats like "4 months" or "1 year, 3 months, 2 days".Right now I'm using the old Qualtrics editor so I can use the "form" Text Entry type question and I have four boxes labeled "years", "months", "weeks", "days". But I would rather drop-down boxes much like the Calendar-Date questions I can import from the Questions Library in the Demographics folder. I have one question where I ask participants to enter a "start" and "end date" but that's not really ideal. And the text box entry also leaves more room for data input error. The date drop downs work but I don't want people to level the survey if they don't know exactly what date. I would just rather they could say "5 months".Would there be any way to edit the current options in the Demographics library or create a sort of scroll or drop down with just numbers beside or under the wor

Can I make few different surveys with one URL address?

Hello!I wanted to know, if it's possible to make 3 different surveys, that are available at the same URL address. I want people to randomly get assigned to one of this surveys, without any conditions. Or - is it possible to make 3 blocks of questions, that will randomly appear to a person? For example - Person 1 enters my URL address leading to survey and gets Block 1 of questions, then a few minutes later Person 2 enters my URL address leading to the same survey, and gets Block 2 of questions.I hope I've made this clear, but I know that it's a little bit confusing (especially with my not so good English :( ) Thank you for any responses!

How to set up branch logic that redirects participants who fail 2 out of 3 attention checks?

I am trying to set up a branch logic that redirects participants who fail 2 out of the 3 attention checks in our survey. Each attention check question is in a matrix table. The branch logic is set up below all three attention checks. I have a feeling the logic is not triggering because I do not have the and/or statements set up correctly... I attached a screenshot of the branch logic below. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

How to enable multiple participants to participate on a single survey?

I am working on a metrics survey that spans multiple areas within an organization. The survey has 7 blocks with 7 individuals responsible for each of the 7 blocks within every participating company.How do I go about enabling this? Is there a way to use the save and continue option as well, so any new data does not erase what is already filled in?

Error message when no choices selected in a Multiple Choice question

I'm getting the following error message when a user selects no options in a Multiple Choice question that allows for multiple answers.I set a rule of 0 to 2 allowed choices, but the survey throws this error when no answer choices are selected:It's kind of a weird error message, and also shouldn't be appearing in the first place since I have 0 as the minimum.

Import embedded data from one survey to another?

Hi all, I'm relatively new to using Qualtrics so this might be a bit of a newbie question. I need to create two surveys, where Survey A is multiple choice and Survey B is a MaxDiff. I also have a contact list (ContactListA) that has embedded respondent data (eg. first name, last name, location and job title). The embedded data is purely for analysis purposes, and is not intended to be verified by the respondent - aka it's just sitting in the background of each respondent's answers. Currently, for Survey A, the embedded data is linked to the respondent via distributions --> Emails --> ContactListA. Now, I need Survey A to immediately direct the respondent to Survey B upon completion, and I need the embedded data from Survey A to be imported to Survey B for each respondent. Is there an easy way to do this that results in a seamless experience for the respondent? Many thanks,

I need some kind of break between randomised questions

I'm super happy with the option to present only a certain number of questions in a block, it is exactly what I need. However, because the page breaks are then removed, it looks to my respondents as if the audio player for the following question belongs to the question above. This could be solved if I could move the audio player down, to between the question and the answer matrix, but I can't. Failing that I'd like to add a stripe or something between the questions, to mark them as separate, but I can't do that, either. Any ideas?

How can I delete answers from my survey?

Hello :-)I am using qualtrics for the first time and I would like to delete some of the answers on my survey completely. The reason why I want to delete them is because I only need 140 participants, but now i have about 180... I tired to delete them in the "data and analysis" section and it did delete the answers but it always left an empty row behind. ALSO it does not delete the answers in the report section.in the picture below you can see the empty row that left behind when trying to delete something:I would be very happy if someone has a solution for my problem!Thank you in advance!kind regards,Laura

How do I set up my survey so an individual participant completes a different block each attempt?

My survey instrument includes three randomized blocks of questions. Participants complete the survey three times over two years, and a different block each time. How do I set up the survey so that individuals get a different block each time they click the survey link and can only complete the survey a total of three times? It is important for the blocks to remain random so that I get an even spread of completed blocks over each time interval.

Can I prevent the automatic adding of new questions or embedded data to results reports?

I have a few results reports we reference. Anytime I add new questions or embedded data to my survey those items automatically start showing up in my results reports on the left hand side of the results and I have to go in to each one and manually uncheck them. Is there a setting to prevent this?

How can participants create their own identifier code?

Hi there,For my study, I need pre-, mid- and post-intervention measures that I need to match up student responses so I can see if there are improvements. However, because my study is with adolescents I want them to be able to create their own code (e.g. with the structure INITIALS/BIRTHDAY/SCHOOL INITIALS, so mine would, for example, be TC19121998FU) so that they have better chance of remembering it - I will have a couple hundred respondents so it isn't practical for me to assign codes nor answer a hundred emails of students who have forgotten their code. How do I make my survey so that students can create their own code and each response comes under this code so I canThank you

Authenticators: using a query string to hide or reveal blocks

My question is about using URL query strings that include information about showing or hiding blocks. Is this doable?I have a pretty complex problem but am relatively convinced this is the best way to solve it. I will include context, though, in case the community has any alternative suggestions. Feel free to totally skip my story to the last two, numbered questions at the end if it's TL/DR.I'm looking for my clinicians to validate the diagnoses of some of my responders, who will take several, linked surveys. Here is my plan:Grabbing clinicians' information:Use Airtable or similar to collect clinician information, including a username and password.Upload to Qualtrics as csv to make a Contacts List.From responders' perspective:They should receive a URL that they can pass on to their clinician on completion of section 1 via email.The URL should contain their unique identifier as part of the query string -- but also part of the query string should ensure that the person who clicks on

Is ResponseID unique per account or per survey?

Hi everyone!I am running multiple surveys which I then gather into a single database of ours. I'm currently using the ResponseID as the unique ID of each survey in the database. However, I was wondering whether this variable is unique across surveys (per account) or whether it's only going to be unique on a survey basis.I.e. will there be a (very tiny, yet realistic) chance of ResponseIDs from survey A and survey B to be identical?The easy fix would be to prefix each ResponseID with a fixed ID of the survey (e.g. "A_R_123456789" vs "B_R_123456789"), but I'm only going to update my database accordingly if it's necessary 😀 This does assume that the ResponseID is always a guaranteed unique ID (for which I found conflicting information online: is it random or is it random & unique?).Thanks!Michael

Keeping same loop & merge pair for next question

The screen shot above demonstrates the beginning of a question in my survey. My loop & merge has 96 difference images, half of faces I have manipulated to be fatter, half I have manipulated to be thinner. It is the respondent's job to select which person they'd hire for a job role.For ease in filling out the study, I decided to put my next measure of these faces on a new page (the page was too clustered with all measures on same page). However, I have been told it would be more helpful it the same faces remain displayed for next measure in the form of a slider. How this question currently appears is demonstrated below. Is there any way at all I can ensure that the exact same pairing can appear for this further measure on a new page or not?
