Can I assign Scores to Hot Spot regions? | XM Community
Skip to main content

I would like to assign scores to the various regions in Hot Spot question and then have access to those scores in a Report.

Hi SedonaFlute

Unfortunately hot spot question type is not supported for scoring in Qualtrics, you can find more information here
However, one of the alternative I can think of is:

  1. Define the regions in the hot spot questions as per your requirement

  2. Go to survey flow and create variable for each of the region selection to 0

  3. Use branch logic to check if respondent has selected the region and then change the embedded variable score to 1.

  4. In the screenshot example below, I have created and initialized variable Region1-Dislike = 0.

  5. Further I have added branch condition to check if respondent has selected region1 with dislike scale, if yes I have change the score of the Region1-Dislike = 1.

Hope this helps

Thanks Ugam,
This helps a lot. However, my Survey Flow now looks like this. Everything works except the final calculation of CAP_ChgApproval_HotSpot. It comes back as NA. Do I have a syntax issue?

Hi SedonaFlute ,

Yes, you would need to change the formula which you have written at very end as follows:

$e{ e://Field/R_100_Selected * 100.0 }

This should do the trick...
