Answer
Associating answers with keyboard keys
In my current survey, I have two choices that are chosen by them being clicked on. I would like to associate each choice with a different keyboard key. I contacted Qualtrics' support team and was told that this can be done only by using JavaScript. Would anyone be able to help me how to do so? I have only two possible answers, and would like to associate the first one with the left arrow keyboard key and the second one with the right arrow keyboard key.

Here is a solution that automatically submits the page when you choose left or right:

Most browsers only hear `onkeydown` and `onkeypress` events for the arrow keys, so keep that in mind if doing this in the future: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5597060/detecting-arrow-key-presses-in-javascript
