Branch based on Quiz Score Not Working


Forum|alt.badge.img+1

Hi there, 

I’m trying to program my survey so that if participants receive a score below 8 on the OASIS (an anxiety measurement tool), they will be directed to the end of the survey (because they will not qualify for my study). 

In the survey flow I created a branch below the OASIS block and input “then branch if OASIS score is less than 8” and then selected “end of survey.” Below is an image of what my current survey flow looks like: 

I checked to ensure that the OASIS is scored, and it appears to be, given that under “scoring” I can see that the values for each answer choice of the OASIS are highlighted in green. See here: 

However, when I preview the survey and input answers that would result in a score lower than 8, I am not directed to the end of the survey. In other words, the branch I created is not working. 

If anyone has any recommendations on how to resolve this issue, I’d be very appreciative. I’m new to using Qualtrics.

Thank you for your time.

Two things hih can check

1) make sure that your embedded variable is numeric type. Go to options in embedded field and make it numeric

2) check value of score in your data.

Hi,

 

First you need to create embedded data to store all the values of 1 to 5. Then do the math operations to add all the scores. then use your condition as above.

Hi ​@danfaraci,

Did you define the embedded data “OASIS Score” to set with values from scoring before using it as a condition in survey flow?

For illustration only
