Condition for skip logic based on a mean score | XM Community
Skip to main content
Hello there,

I want to use a matrix table with a Likert scale from 1 till 4 in my survey, and add a skip logic to it. the condition for this skip logic should be based on the average score on the different statement within the matrix table. Is there a way to do this?
Not sure how to make it work with skip logic out of the box, but you could use display logic or branch logic. Here is one way to accomplish it:



1) Set up scoring on your matrix question. Enter in 1,2,3,4 values for each scale point in the matrix.

2) In the Survey Flow, create a new embedded data variable called matrixScore. Set the value based on Scoring -> Your Score -> Weighted Mean

3) Use branch logic based on matrixScore (e.g if matrixScore < 3 display a certain block of questions)
Hi there,



I am working on a similar issue. I followed the instructions you listed here, but I am having the issue that regardless of whether the weighted mean is greater than 2, it skips to the end the survey (but it should be moving to Block 2 questions). I attached a screenshot of the survey flow, just in case it is helpful. Hopefully someone can point out what I'm doing wrong. !



Thank you.
I figured it out. The matrix score embedded data had to be moved below Block 1 to work. As a newbie to Qualtrics, I didn't know that.
