Randomizer/"Evenly Present Elements" - How to fix assignment error to re-evenly present elements? | XM Community
Skip to main content

I launched a survey experiment with piped in embedded data, but accidentally copy/pasted the same stimuli for two of the conditions.

Example: 10 conditions that are all different, but Condition 7 and 8 were pasted in as 7 and 7

I caught this right after launch, so Condition 8 is now 8. However, 7 has two times as many responses as all the others, and 8 has many fewer. I don’t care about more responses for 7, but I want 8’s count to catch up with 1-6/9-10.

I see that you can “Edit Counts,” but I’m not sure how to do this to fix the “lower amounts of Condition 8” issues. Do I decrease the Edit Count for 8, or increase the Edit Count for 8? Or is there another way to make changes?

For posterity: without touching anything, the numbers eventually adjusted over the course of a week’s collection to become even again. Problem solved with no intervention!
