Ok I put what I ended up doing here:
Ok… I posted what I ended up doing in this question:
Ok crew. I am new to this Qualtrics community, and not off to a great start since the question I was searching for (same as yours, @kaiserj6 ) has been asked several times (see this and this and this) but none of which seem to have an answer that really walks people through how to get what they want. Only partial answers (e.g. “try a bar graph”, “use the nth top and bottom what-cha-hoo-zits”). All of which is incredibly frustrating to a Qualtrics newb who set out to make a simple 1 question survey, and get a simple chart with ranked results. SO. In the hopes of being a helper rather than a disgruntled user… here’s what I found.A bunch of bologna and non-helpful answers on the web. (ok, ok. I’m getting over it slowly). (Asterisk: nothing I could understand as a newbie qualtrics user. But also, legit, nothing looked fully answered.) I exported the response results, resigned to my fate to gather results manually and just eyeball what was the most popular. What I saw was a list of ratings
I have this problem a lot. Rank order looks on paper like it is going to yield the insights you want, but in my experience it is really hard to communicatre to stakeholders. I have done it in two differnt ways in the past. 1- present stacked bar charts that show how often a category was placed in the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd category. But what I DON'T Like is that this masks the overall n count. So I usually combine it with a starter question that is like "select what matters" THEN "rank order". ! Alterantivey, create a table that shows the row or column percents to show the distribution across the board. I like to use conditional formatting in excel to vusually represent the weights for ease of understanding. ! And for next time: try other question options to show prioritization data. https://www.surveyanalytics.com/max-diff/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjoint_analysis https://www.criticaltosuccess.com/how-to-create-a-static-four-quadrant-matrix-model-in-an-excel-chart/ I don’t really u
I have seen this question asked often, but no one seems to have a satisfactory breakdown. Is there a video we can watch or something? This seems like such a silly thing to have to ask, yet here we all are. I am so frustrated. Of course all of us using the ranking question would expect to be able to see what selections were the top ranked and which ones were the lowest ranked. Why isn’t there a guide ready to go for folks like us who are obviously using the rank question as a means to get a simple result?*sigh* This feels sooooo silly.
