A reviewer of our manuscript wants to know precisely how participants were randomized in our surveys. We already say they were evenly randomized, so I think they want to know what Qualtrics’s algorithm does, under the hood, not merely how we programmed question blocks and in what proportion we randomized participants to conditions, etc. E.g., does it use the equivalent of a random number generator to assign each participant as they enter the survey, or alternate participants as they come (first person to condition A, second to condition B, third to A, fourth to B, etc.)? We haven’t immediately found any documentation about this. Does anyone know?
