How to list 1 random word from 4 categories in choices for Multiple Choice Questions? | XM Community
Skip to main content
I have 4 lists of words of different categories. I would like them to appear randomly as choices in Multiple Choice Questions, such that for every question, there will be 1 random word from each list.



I would also want the randomly chosen word to differ across questions. How do I make them appear so?



For example:



Animals List 1

Cat

Dog

Hamster

Guinea Pig



Animals List 2

Zebra

Lion

Tiger

Giraffe



Plants List 1

Grass

Beanstalk

Tree

Leaves



Plants List 2

Sunflower

Rose

Orchid

Gardenia



(These are made up lists).



e.g. Question: (Picture of a Cat) "Name this living thing."



Choice 1: Cat

Choice 2: Random word from "Animals List 2"

Choice 3: Random word from "Plants List 1"

Choice 4: Random word from "Plants List 2"



(Different choices to appear for every question)

I understand that I can use randomizer and piped text and embedded data for the choices, but how do I arrange it such that it will appear as mentioned?



I think it might be similar to this, but I am not sure: https://www.qualtrics.com/community/discussion/1798/how-to-use-randomizer-of-survey-flow-as-piped-text



Would appreciate the help!

You can use four randomizer for 4 choices and select one from each category.

Thank you for your answer. I'm not too sure I get it. Do you mean in survey flow, or the randomisation option in the choices? Can you explain further?
@syafiqah002 , in survey flow.
