Hello. Thank you in advance for answering this. I am wondering if there is any rule of thumb for deleting responses based on the amount of time taken to complete the survey. I have a 36-item survey. I am done collecting responses, and I am now filtering them based on meeting the criteria for the survey. I also want to delete anyone who did not take the survey seriously. For example, I have several respondents who took less than 60 seconds on the survey. Clearly with 36-items this is not an appropriate response. But, I'm wondering if there is a rule of thumb for the time limit - should anything under 2 minutes be deleted? 3 minutes? I've looked online, and cannot find an answer to this. Thank you.

yes there is thumb rule called as Median LOI rule. Any record that spent less than 1/2 Median LOI you can reject. Calculate Median in excel from all duration and than devide it by 2. filter out records with their suration <(1/2*Median LOI)
