I have a question where we ask respondents which programs they are a member of. All of the respondents are members of a specific program. How can I make sure that the specific program is selected for those respondents who forgot to select it?
For example:
Q1 has A, B and C programs as answer options.
All respondents are actual members of the C program.
Respondent only selected A and clicked on Next.
Before moving to the new question, I need to add C as a selection for Q1
Thanks.

Automatically selecting an answer option even if it wasn't selected by the respondent

You are making it more complicated than needed. If you want to always select the choice with recode 2, then:
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnPageSubmit(function() {
this.setChoiceValueByRecodeValue(2,true);
});
+27You could make C a default choice and it would be automatically selected. They would be able to deselect it.
Alternatively, you could use JS to select it in the addOnPageSubmit function.
Do you have a sample code? This is my first time programming in Qualtrics after transitioning from Confirmit.
Thanks.
This is my code. It's not working. 2 is the precode of the answer option that I want to auto-select.
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnPageSubmit(function()
{
/*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page is unloaded*/
var valQ8= "${q://QID9/SelectedChoicesRecode}";
var found = 0;
var arrQ8 = new Array();
arrQ8 = valQ8.split(",")
for(var i=0; i
found = 1;
}
if (found = 0) {
this.setChoiceValueByRecodeValue(2,true);
}
});
