If the question where you are trying to pipe in the comment entered is in next page, then you can use insert piped text to view the thoughts entered by the end user:

https://community.qualtrics.com/XMcommunity/discussion/comment/44864#Comment_44864hi, because mine needs to come from the loop, your way sometime, will leave a lot of blank tho. Is it possible to do a loop and merge with your way?

Hi there,

What I would try is:

1. create an embedded data field like time_up set it to 0


2. add a display logic on all thought questions display if time_up = 0


3. create as many text entry questions as respondents might be able to answer in 10 minutes.


4. Capture the time when they start the first question in an embedded data field startTime


5. calculate the time difference when they submit a question if the time difference = 10 minutes set the embedded data field time_up = 1, thus the following questions won't be shown


6. In your case respondent can end the loop by answering no on the more thought question: for this i also would add an embedded data field no_more_thought and set it in the beginning of your survey and set it to 1 when a respondent selects no


7. this means that display logic in the loop needs to be expanded to display if time_up = 0 AND no_more_thought = 0

https://community.qualtrics.com/XMcommunity/discussion/comment/44871#Comment_44871Hi Rudi,
Thank you so much for the help, however, I am not sure if I did it correctly, could you have a look?
follow by
For step 3 when u said "creat as many text entry as possible" do you mean in the loop and merge field?
For step 4, I cannot find this option in the embedded data field tho.
and I am not sure what do you mean by step 5, and how to do steps 6 and 7, currently they still keep looping until the field (for test, I only set up 6) run out even I press no. Sorry for the trouble.

Also, if I want to set the time to 12 mins, what should I change?


Many thanks

hi Hallyson,

okay let's start with walk through
Survey Flow embedde data:
the 600000 are 10 minutes in milliseconds for

before the loop:
have one question/text info before the loop


add the below javaScript to set the start time of the experiment. Make sure that this question is shown for every one as you need the start time.

Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnPageSubmit(function()
{
let startTime = new Date().getTime();
console.log(startTime)
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData("start_time", startTime);

});


loop question set up
mind that you need to force response else you get empty text fields
in the first question of the loop add the below JS:
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnPageSubmit(function()
{
let timeLimit = "${e://Field/time_limit}"
let startTime ="${e://Field/start_time}"
let currentTime = new Date().getTime()
console.log(startTime)
console.log(currentTime - startTime)
if(currentTime - startTime >= timeLimit){
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData("time_is_up", 1); //if time is up set the embedded data field to 1
}
});
in the second question add this javaScript
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnPageSubmit(function()
{
let selectedChoice = Number(this.getChoiceRecodeValue(this.getSelectedChoices()))

console.log(selectedChoice)

if(selectedChoice == 2){ //adjust the number 2 to your recode of the now option

Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData("no_more_thought", 1);
}

});
finally set up your slider question:


diplay logic would on eacht item would look somethink like:

Best regards

Rudi

Thank you so much for the help Rudi ! really appreciated it!
However, the slider question does not seem to work. it leaves a slider, but does not pipe down the name, do you know what is happening?
This is what I get (I type 2 thoughts in so the slider number is correct, only no piped names)

Also, sorry to trouble you again, but is it possible, after time up, it auto-forwards to the next question?

Many thanks
Halleyson

Hi,

does it show the entered text when you remove the display logic?

Best regards
Rudi

Hi Rudi ,

No, it doesn't.


Many thanks
Halleyson

Hey there,

that's a lot of questions

you missed adding the fields start_time and time_limit in your survey flow.

for 10 minutes set the time_limit to 600 000. for 12 minutes to 720 000 the formula is minutes*60*1000 (time in JS is in milliseconds)
both the fields time_is_up and no_more_questions_should be set to 0 at the beginning.
actually the enter as many text entry fields ... is wrong. First I assumed a loop and merge setup wouldn't work so I thought you need to add text entry questions. What I really have meant is: add as many loop iterations as you think one person can answer in 10 or 12 Minutes

you need to add the javascript snippets I've sent you to your questions

you'll find this option here:


the display logic in the loop questions should be:


Please mind you really need to enter the JavaScript. Else the whole thing won't work

Best regards

Rudi

Hi Rudi,

Sorry, I forgot to update my last question, after your second post with the explanation + code, everything already worked! With the qsf file you send me, I figure out that the pipe text problem is due to I used the form field, but you use the text entry (which is even better! thank you).

Many thanks
Halleyson

https://community.qualtrics.com/XMcommunity/discussion/comment/44885#Comment_44885Please, check if you are piping the answers:-) and if the display logic refers to the according answers
Best regards

Rudi

Hi Rudi,

Sorry to trouble you again, is it possible to set it auto-advance after it reaches time limits? in this case, I could remove the yes and no options.
Really sorry for all the hassle I've created
Many thanks
Halleyson

Hi

@Halleyson

Hi Rudi,
https://community.qualtrics.com/XMcommunity/discussion/comment/44894#Comment_44894Sorry, I did not make it clear, what I mean is, after 12 mins, this loop will auto stop and auto-forward to my next question (the slider). So it's like building in a timer.
also, I was wondering if the qualtrics will record the time frame (response time) that participants type in the response? like first thought was typed in 1 min 30 seconds, second thought was typed in 3 mins 22 seconds.

Many thanks

hi, you could do something like this:

Hi Rudi,
https://community.qualtrics.com/XMcommunity/discussion/comment/44898#Comment_44898Thank you so much for the help, btw, just to let you know, in order for your code to work, it need to set a timer with auto-advance before the question's entry box, then your code does the tricks. Honestly, I could not thank you enough for the help you gave. Sorry for all the hassle I create
Many thanks
Halleyson
