Hi,
I want to know if I can randomize the order of blocks in a Qulatrics survey across different respondents, but keep the same order for each respondent when they retake the survey. So, say, Respondent 1 had the following randomized order of blocks: a,b,c. respondent 2 had the following randomized order: b,c,a. what I want to do is that when respondent 1 retakes the survey, the blocks are ordered in the same way they took the survey the 1st time (a,b,c), and respondent 2 with their first order (b,c,a). Is that possible? If so, how?
Thanks!
You could probably predetermine the randomized order and pass it via an embedded data or an URL parameter and program your survey flow accordingly so that the respondent sees the blocs in the wanted order.
Or if you don't want to predetermine it and not using anonynous access, you could randomly generate a path the first time a respondent accesses the questionnaire, stock it in an ED and update the contact information with that ED once complete. Define that ED at the beginning of your survey flow so that it's filled if it had a value in the directory and use logic to not generate a new value if it exists.
Of course, if the number of permutations is too high, that might be unrealistic...
