Block randomization in Qualtrics survey | XM Community
Skip to main content

Hi All, 

I am new to Qualtrics. I am trying to implement random block randomization - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3136079/#:~:text=participants%20among%20groups.-,Block%20randomization,size%20across%20groups%20over%20time. in Qualtrics survey site. For example, Block of 4 for the first 4 respondents, then block of 5 for the next 5 respondents.and so on. Is it possible to tie a subject to a specific treatment A or B in qualtrics survey ? 

 

Thank you

Hi @isha, Please refer to this support page for the randomization setup 


Hi,

 

Please don’t get confused with blocks in qualtrics with the blocks in random block randomization. Let me explain with an example. 

 

For example, I have 100 subjects for my survey and I would like to divide my subjects into set of 4, 6 and 8 and so on.  Set 1 with 4 respondents will be assigned  survey A and survey B equally. 1st respondent from Set 1 is assigned survey A, 2nd respondent is assigned survey B, 3rd respondent is assigned survey A and 4th respondent is assigned survey B. Similarly, Set 2 need to be assigned for 6 respondents. Then next 5 respondents  will be assigned survey A and Survey B.

 

Is the above requirement is possible in Qualtrics survey ?
