equal randomisation based on answers to likert scale questions | XM Community
Skip to main content

anyone knows how do I set up randomisation of treatments based on answers to a scale question? I thought I would first do embedded data where scores are weighted based on normal and equal  distribution of participants to 5 treatment scenarios with the condition that each scenario will have participants with a varied levels of trust (scale with 4 likely scale statements). anyone knows how to set this up in Qualtrics? 

You can create a tracking Quota for the options and check if the minimum count for a option is reached for treatment group then start terminating the treatment respondents selecting that option.

@ElviraBolat Evenly Present Randomization use a counting system to balance the outcome but it don’t count multiple specific condition a once. So you just need to make 4 branchs for 4 level of trust in the survey flow. For each branch a Evenly Present Randomizer with 5 treatment blocks. (i.e a Evenly Present Randomizer for each level of trust). 

This will make sure the proportion of trusting levels in each treatment to be similar across and overall.

If you want to also even out result across trusting levels, use Quota for the scale question since this is base on respondent choices.


Hope this help
