Live update an average of sliders as user's fill out form | XM Community

Hello Community!



I am working on the above qualtrics survey and I am trying to figure out how to get it to average all of the sliders as the user fills out the form. Basically we are providing a grade, as if on a math test in college, but that grade is calculated based on the averages of these 9 sliders that you see here. I am interested in understanding how to get it to show the evaluator the student's live score as they update their response.



Any and all help is greatly appreciated!
To update a question dynamically is probably not possible. You could put the average value into another question as follows:



You would use javascript. @TomG shows how to get the value here:

Then you can average it and put the average into an embedded data variable. The embedded data is then piped into the question when you want to show the result.
