I have two sets of embedded data in the survey flow…A1 A1essA2 A2essA3 A3ess… …A10 A10essI wrote some JavaScript that randomizes an array of text elements and stores the individual elements into A1 - A10. The other set of embedded data fields, A1ess - A10ess, are all set equal to zero in the survey flow. That part is working fine.I then pipe A1-A10 into the statements of a matrix question that asks the user to rate each statement as essential, beneficial, or not necessary …For all the statements for which the user rates them as essential, I want to change the A#ess data field to 1. A simple boolean flag indicating that this field has been rated as essential.For example, if the third statement in the matrix question is rated as essential, then A3ess would be set equal to 1.I’m floundering around trying to write some JavaScript to do this. Nothing is even close to working. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks

@LarryKapAdd this JavaScript to your questionQualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady(function() { var QID = this.questionId; jQuery('.c4 input[type="radio"], .c5 input[type="radio"], .c6 input[type="radio"]').on('change', function() { var radioButtonID = jQuery(this).attr('id'); console.log('Radio Button ID:', radioButtonID); var matches = radioButtonID.match(/QR~QID\d+~(\d+)~(\d+)/); if (matches && matches.length === 3) { var statementNumber = parseInt(matches[1]); var choiceNumber = parseInt(matches[2]); console.log('Statement Number:', statementNumber); console.log('Choice Number:', choiceNumber); var essField = 'A' + statementNumber + 'ess'; if (choiceNumber === 1) { Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData(essField, 1); console.log(essField + ' = 1'); } else { Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData(essField, 0); console.log(essField + ' = 0'); } } });});Hope it works

@LarryKap,I may be missing something, but it seems you made the whole process more complicated than necessary. Instead of randomly populating embedded data fields A1 through A10, you could put all your text statements in the matrix and useadvanced randomization to evenly display 10 of them. It would make your data much cleaner and A#ess variables unnecessary.
