Best way to survey same participants pre and post one-day event?

Hi there,

I’m fairly new to Qualtrics and loving the learning journey. I would really appreciate some advice as to the best way to approach this research:

I want to survey participants of a hackathon-type event before and after the event. Essentially I am trying to assess any changes in entrepreneurial mindset and intent, as a result of their experience. I want to ask the same set of 6 x likert questions before and after the hackathon.

I have created a ‘pre-event’ survey, which at the start asks for their first name, last name, and student ID number. Then follows the 6 x likert questions.

Do I give them a separate ‘post-event’ survey - again asking for their first name, last name, and student ID number. And the same 6 x likert questions. And try to match up IDs later?

OR is there a way of connecting the two so that I don’t ask for their name and ID twice?

Thanks in advance

Jacki

There’s some ideas in this support article as well about pre/post test surveys: https://community.qualtrics.com/survey-platform-54/pre-test-and-post-test-analysis-help-24676

@JackiM You can use this workflow to save their contact info: name, ID, email….. after the pre-event survey:
https://www.qualtrics.com/support/survey-platform/actions-module/xm-directory-task/
Then after the event, distribute your post-event survey to that exact same list, their information will be linked if you pull it out from contact.
Let me know if it helps
