Counting responses from multiple questions

Question

I have a ranking question that I only want to display if a participant selects a specific dropdown item 2 or more times in the previous matrix questions. Since there are multiple questions, I can't use the display logic to count.

!

If they select "Extremely Painful" two or more times, then display the question.

Is there a way to tally up the count from multiple questions? I'm trying to use embedded data (for the first time), but this command doesn't seem to work -
${q://QID1%232/ChoiceGroup/SelectedChoicesCount/4}

@mkosterich,The easiest way is to do it with JavaScript on a subsequent page and save the count to an embedded variable. Something like the following added to the addOnLoad function:```var countExtPain = "${q://QID2%232/ChoiceGroup/SelectedChoicesForAnswer/1}".split(",").length;Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData("countExtPain", countExtPain);```

You can count how many time it appear by applying the branch in survey flow. Like if for first option extremely painful punch count =1...increment it for all.On your next question apply display logic using this embedded variable count.
