Adding forced Sequence to Matrix Table | XM Community
Skip to main content

Hello everyone I am new to Qualtrics and coding associated to it. I have made a game on Qualtrics in which participants are required to drag and drop items into the correct color box. They are given directions in a separate document.
I want to "force" the participants to drag and drop items in a sequence that is presented to them. For example, I want participant to first drag and drop "02881-e" and then "20740". I do not want them to jump to other items while skipping the ones in between.
Please guide how this could be done. I am attaching the screenshot of the question for better understanding.

Is there a reason it has to be presented as a drag and drop?
I am thinking that you could as easily use one of the following approaches:

  • Matrix question, presented in Carousel format, so that each item is presented in order (layout will be vertical vs horizontal)

  • Separate multiple choice questions, with page breaks between questions, so that each item is presented in order (can be laid out vertically or horizontally)
