How can I display pre-test results to participants before administering the posttest?

If the assessment can be easily done in qualtrics survey 1, then you can use features like piped text to show the result in end of survey 1 itself and then distribute them post-test survey.

lexieallen22 if you want people to flow straight through, what rondev suggested is a good step to take. Your respondents would:
1) Answer the initial survey and assessment
2) You can use piped text and a descriptive text question to display their responses back to them
3) you don't even have to create a post-test survey, you could make this the next questions in your survey after the display question.
If you need them to hold on to their answers you want some time between the pre-assessment and post-assessment I would approach this differently.
1) Answer the initial survey and assessment
2) Create an email action that emails your respondent and check the option to include response summary. This saves you a lot of piping.
3) In the action email, add a link to the next survey so they can take the post assessment - or you can put this link into a different action email if you wish for the email to go out at a later time.

• This set up requires a little more thought. Do you need the pre and post responses to line up in your data? If so, you will likely want to pass through an identifier so that you can tie survey 1 and survey 2 together.
