Use JS to calucate the embedded data value and store it in respective embedded data.

Hello @kubato ,

You may want to consider the following steps:

1. Arrange all required Embedded Variables at the top. Introduce a new variable (e.g. 'Score') and link your calculated 'Score' to that variable.
2. Position your Question Block beneath the variables. (Note: Include in this block only the questions necessary for calculating the score.)
3. Add a Branch and set the condition as "If Score = 1." Include a block with the subsequent questions you wish to display for this particular score.
4. Introduce another Branch and set the condition as "If Score = 2." Add a block with subsequent questions for this specific score.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for all scores and their corresponding subsequent questions.

Please let me know if this method aligns with your requirements.

Thank you, that worked!

I created an empty embedded variable called ‘PHQ9TotalScore’ just before that session in the survey flow, and then used JS to update it as soon as the repective answers are collected. I could then use thios embedded data for logic in subsequent questions in the same session.

Here is my script (which I added to the question following question ‘phq9’):

Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function()

{

    var phq1 = "${q://QID715/SelectedChoicesRecode}";

    var phq2 = "${q://QID716/SelectedChoicesRecode}";

    var phq3 = "${q://QID717/SelectedChoicesRecode}";

    var phq4 = "${q://QID718/SelectedChoicesRecode}";

    var phq5 = "${q://QID719/SelectedChoicesRecode}";

    var phq6 = "${q://QID720/SelectedChoicesRecode}";

    var phq7 = "${q://QID721/SelectedChoicesRecode}";

    var phq8 = "${q://QID722/SelectedChoicesRecode}";

    var phq9 = "${q://QID723/SelectedChoicesRecode}";

    

    var PHQ9TotalScore = parseInt(phq1) + parseInt(phq2) + parseInt(phq3) + parseInt(phq4) + parseInt(phq5) + parseInt(phq6) + parseInt(phq7) + parseInt(phq8) + parseInt(phq9);

    

    Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData('PHQ9TotalScore', PHQ9TotalScore);

});

Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnReady(function()

{

    /*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page is fully displayed*/

});

Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnUnload(function()

{

    /*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page is unloaded*/

});

Please note that the best answer is from @rondev.

I clicked the other one by mistake and unfortunatelly cannot change it:

“according to our guidelines, once a "Best Answer" has been selected it cannot be changed. Please ensure to carefully consider your choice before making it final.”

Thank you. In the end I used JS to do it, but your point 1 was still very helpful for it!
