Qualtrics to SPSS


Hello,
I hope you are staying well. When exporting Qualtrics data to SPSS the scoring range changed from 0-3, to 1-4. How can I ensure the scoring is consistent in both platforms?
Thank you.

MaryKay22_ Have you checked the coding in your survey? Go to the question, click the gear icon, and select "Recode Values" to see what the values are set as.

Typically, default choice recodes are 1-X unless you have edited/removed choices. I assumed you were referring to choice labels 0-3 as 'scores'. If you are actually using Scoring, scores usually don't apply to a single question and are downloaded in SPSS as separate fields...one field for each scoring category.

If the choice labels are 0-3, recode the choices to 0-3. By default the recodes would be 1-4 which is what is exported to SPSS.

Thank you for the quick reply TomG.
So I understand what you wrote, that regardless of the scores I enter for each question, the SPSS export is the default 1-4 unless I recode the choices.


Thank you!

Thank you, Clair.
