piped embedded data blank | XM Community
Skip to main content

Hi everyone,

I’m new to qualtrics and I’m struggling with a problem regarding embedded data piped from one question to another. What I really don’t understand is why some piped data appears and others do not when they are all set before the questions they are displayed.

Here’s my survey flow:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What is really strange is that when I test the survey, respective transfers display correctly in the P1 and P2 branches but in R branch I only see what P2 has transferred (transfer2) to R while the transfer from P1 (transfer1) is blank. As you can see embedded data is set still at the begininnig of the flow and the blocks show correctly. It just that one value is displayed and the other is not.

 

Any hint about this?

 

@NicolaMangra I can see transfer1 in P1 branch and transfer2 in P2 branch but. Where did your transfer1 & 2 field got it’s value in R branch? I can’t see it in the block. 
You can use gofullpage to make a whole picture it’s gonna be easier to diagnose. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/gofullpage-full-page-scre/fdpohaocaechififmbbbbbknoalclacl


Thank you for the suggestio Nam.

Here’s the full image of the survey flow.

 

 The thing is that I want the recipient R to know the transfers from P1 and P2 and I want also P1 and P2 to know the transfer made by the other, respectively. So this information is common between them. 

Currently, when I test the survey, the problems comes at the feedbacks blocks after R branch.

P1 just sees correctly its own transfer but is does not see P2 transfer, as I said this comes 

blank.

Same for P2, he just sees it’s own transfer but not P1 trasfer.

It’s even more strange for R. In fact he sees P2 transfer but not P1 so it seems that the problem is only on P1 side but I really do not understand why.

Your help would be really appreciated!

Thanks,

Nicola

 

 


@NicolaMangra In branch R, I don’t see any other way that transfer1 & 2 can get it’s data except from the beginning of the flow at the 3rd set embedded data block. Did you some how populate the transfer data before the branching. Like what I said in the previous reply.

Imagine participantRole = R, your survey go pass the 3 set embeddeddata block and 3 survey block then skip P1 & P2 (the only place where it’s get transfer the data) and go straight to R branch. How can you see transfer2. It’s making nonsense and there’s some hidden thing with your survey (even participantRole= random, how can you branch for value P1,P2,R????). The problem is not with your survey flow, maybe there’s some Javascript somewhere or you have transfer2 as contact data…etc Idk...😓

You said you’re new but this survey doesn’t looks like it’s come from a new guy. Is this even your survey?


Well I’m trying to design a repeated dictator game and I found a template on smatriqs so I thought to work on it.

the template just matches two participants, one is the sender who can send some money and the other is the recipient who in fact, receives the data generated in the sender branch.

My design would like to be the same but with group of three people, 2 sender and one recipient. Also I would like to make them play for n times but that’s another story.

I still do not understand fully if what I have in my mind can be done on qualtrics but It is seems it can be.

Maybe working on the template directly was not the best idea and I should restart from the beginning creating my own survey? but still I do not understand where the problem is with this by the way..

@NicolaMangra If this is a template, then the survey flow is just the tip of the ice-berg. I’m affraid the hidden path is a bit complex for you to investigate. Like I said, Javascript might be somewhere in the first 3 blocks, otherwise you can’t move into any branch because you don’t satisfy any condition.
