Setting response quotas to survey blocks

Looking to design a survey with three randomized blocks and need 300 responses for each block. I have the survey designed for respondents to answer questions only in blocks 1, 2, and 3 (these are randomly assigned). However, how do I setup a logic/flow that will take one of the blocks out of the survey once 300 responses have been hit for each one? For example, block 1 questions just hit 300. However, block 2 only has 280, and block 3 has 287. I need the survey to stay live but not assign block 1 to anymore respondents. Appreciate it.

Insert info to respondent about their percentage of responded questions

Hi! My survey contains only questions that are not mandatory. However, I would like to add a final message to my survey, just before the respondent submits, to inform them about the percentage of questions they answered and if they are sure they want to submit (especially to highlight if they did not answer lots of questions!). Is there a way to achieve this? Thank you!

Can I update loop and merge fields dynamically?

I have two arrays X and Y each of 80 elements, I want to shuffle the elements of the arrays.... I have to ask a question " What percentage of (word from array X) do you think are (word from array Y)? " 80 times and for the first question I want first word from shuffled array X and first word from shuffled array Y for the second question I want second word from shuffled array X and second word from shuffled array Y and so on.... For example X= ["a","b","c","d","e"] shuffled X = ["b","_c_","d","e","a"]; Y= ["p","q","r","s","t"] shuffled Y = ["q","_r_","t","p","s"]; I want to present my 5 questions as What percentage of b do you think are q? What percentage of_ c_ do you think are_ r_? Is there any possible way to do that? What I though is to shuffle the arrays and place it in loop and merge so It loops according to the order.But I am not sure whether it is possible.

Custom validation based on answers to previous questions

Hi there! I'm trying to ensure that respondents who answer 'yes' in either of the two previous questions, must then enter their email address in the following question (see attached for screenshots). At the moment the logic isn't working correctly. I am prompted to enter an email when I select 'yes' in one of the two questions, BUT I'm also getting an error message when I enter an email address. !

Custom validation being applied to both responses

I'm trying to add custom validation (i.e. number entered needs to be between x and y otherwise show the message: 'please enter a valid postal code') for people who select that they currently reside 'Within the U.S.' (see below for screenshots). However, when I test the survey and select' Outside of the U.S.' (this should terminate the respondent from the survey), it's also applying the custom validation message ('please enter a valid postal code'). Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Any suggested alternatives? ! ! !

row display in matrix question based on responses to previous questions

Is there a way to have rows in a matrix table appear based on responses to previous questions? In my survey I ask people how many people they have. Like this: ! Then I want to ask about the ages of the children in a table like this: ! But I want the number of rows in the table to correspond to the number of children the respondent said they had. So for example, if they said they had two children there would only be rows for child 1 and child 2. Is there a way to do this? I would be interested in a similar solution for check all that apply questions, where the options displayed can be displayed based on responses to other questions. Thanks.

Why doesn't my piped embedded data show?

Hi! I'm trying to design a Vignette (or factorial survey experiment) in my Qualtrics survey. I'm a beginner in Qualtrics so please forgive me if I made a really obvious mistake... I constructed the question, with randomizers, set embedded Data and piped the fields into the original question, but when running the survey the spots where the piped text was simply stays blank. ! ! Maybe I made the mistake of not adding a page break after the questions - but because Randomizers and Embedded Data only show in the Survey flow I don't know how to do that. Or is something else wrong with my design? Thanks in Advance!

Are you seeing value in Text IQ?

Hello there I just wanted to ask a general question... Are you seeing a positive ROI from Text IQ and how long was the ramp up time (and effort) to start seeing value from it? I've been playing around with it a little, but I can't seem to be able to draw the level of insights I had hoped for. Would love to hear your perception of the functionality. Thanks in advance -Matt

Piping text from embedded data created by survey responses

I am trying to pipe in questions from embedded data. First I declared the fields in the survey flow. These values depend on survey response. Specifically I want to use "spouse" for married people and "significant other" for partnered people: ! Now I want to pipe in the correct relationship designation into another question like this: ! However when I preview the survey this doesn't seem to work. Nothing gets piped in. What am I doing wrong?

Issue with translated URL/directing to second language via URL

Hi, I have a survey/form that is translated into 3 languages other than English. I created URLs for each of the other languages (Spanish, Portuguese, and Bulgarian). I've inserted translations for each language via Tools\\Translate Survey. All 3 show to be 100% translated. When I go to the Portuguese or Bulgarian URLs I see those languages on the first page. However, for the Spanish version the first page shows in English even though the pages is translated. I can toggle to Spanish via the drop-down. When I do that and close the page and reopen the URL it starts the first page in Spanish. I thought maybe it was a cookie/cache issue so I tried in two other browsers (started with Chrome, then used FireFox and Edge). Same thing happened with those browsers. Any idea why this might be happening? Thanks, Brian

Passing Information into Survey URL via Responsys or similar

Hello, I'm still fairly new to using Qualtrics and could not find my specific question/answer in the support documents - so hoping the community can help. Basically what I'm trying to do is embed a survey single URL in an e-mail already going to customers, and I want to make sure I collect some metadata that is associated with the e-mail already. I understand that I can create multiple URL's and preset the data to embed, but since the e-mail goes out to so many - I'd rather have a dynamic embedding process. Example: * Field = Member; Value = (Yes, No, Maybe) * Field = Proximity; Value = ( variable distances) URL Example: survey.mysite.com?Member=_<value pulled in from e-mail file>_&Proximity=_<value pulled in from e-mail file>_ Is this possible and if so, can someone share the right syntax to pull in the current value for each survey respondent in our file? Hopefully this makes sense, but if not, let me know and I'll try to clarify. Allen

Partial Responses - How to Record as Complete

Hi All, Is there are way of manually recording partial responses as completed responses? A number of my participants have answered all my questions, but have then not clicked the final arrow that takes them to the end of the survey. So their responses come up under "response in progress" rather than completed. I have now included an explicit instruction to click the arrow, but for those who completed the survey prior to me discovering this error, is there are way for me to put them down as having finished the survey?

Column Naming Conventions and Overhaul Checklists?

Hi All, I was wondering if anyone has any tips or input on best practices when naming column in DirectoryIQ. I noticed Qualtrics defaults to camel casing for things like "FirstName" or "LastName" but I was thinking of doing something like SQL naming convention for better future migration just in case. Something like "first_name". In addition, I have a Directory with a Project that triggers multiple columns into the Directory, however most, if not all of the column names are poorly named with bad practices. i.e.) "First Name" Therefore I was thinking of doing an overhaul of all of the column names in the Directory AND the specific Project. Off the top of my mind, I know I'll have to change Triggers, Survey Flows, and of course, Attribute names in Directory, but what I was to ask is if anyone can think of anything else that might mess up during my Column Name overhaul that I might've missed? Or if anyone has done something similar, I'd love some tips and tricks!

When do partial responses get recorded?

I have set the the time limit to record partial responses to 4 hours. When will I see that data be shifted over to the recorded responses? So far I haven't seen the data move over even though many responses have not been updated for more than 4 hours. Thank you.

How can you combine the response frequency data from multiple choice items (Likert scale)?

I have a survey with 30 questions covering 6 different topic areas. Each question uses a 5 point Likert scale. I want to be able to combine the responses from all items within a topic (5 different questions) to get an overall topic (or index) score, but I can't figure out how to make it work in Research Core. For example if Topic 1 has questions 1 & 2 and for Q1, 6 people selected Option 1, and for Q2 8 people selection Option 1, I want my Topic1, Option 1 score to be 14. Does anyone know how to make this work?

Slider

I have a question that I ask for the percentage of a few items, and they should sum up for 100%. I used the slider type of question, and gave each item a line with a slider. my problem is that each line can reach 100%, so suming up won't be 100% - It can be lower or higher. Do I have an option to limit the answers so it will be 100% for all items together? Also - how do I limit an answer so it will be only numeric for example I want to know the age and I want the answer to be numeric (20) and not with words (twenty).

Is there a way to set default survey options across the brand?

We would like to set some of the survey options (such as having a back button, prevent ballot box stuffing, etc) as the default across our brand. I can only figure out how to do it survey by survey... Any help greatly appreciated!

Hi! What will happen if a participant does not save his answered at the end of the survey? Will the answers are automatically saved or the answers will be saved ONLY if the participant clicks on the SAVE button at the end of the survey?
