Hi all,
I have a Qualtrics survey connected to Prolific. I have a CSV/list of 90 unique writing prompts, and I need each prompt to be completed exactly once across the full study. So it is kind of in loop and merge land, but not quite.
The important constraint is that this should not be simple randomization. I do not want participants randomly assigned to prompts, because that could create duplicates or leave some prompts unused. Ideally, I want participant 1 to receive one unused prompt, participant 2 to receive another unused prompt, and so on, until all 90 prompts have been assigned/completed once.
My current understanding is that the built-in Qualtrics Randomizer or Loop & Merge randomization can balance presentation, but does not truly function as an inventory/assignment system that locks a prompt once it has been assigned, especially with concurrent participants or partial completions.
Has anyone implemented this kind of “assign each row exactly once” workflow in Qualtrics?
