In my survey, I have 7 questions, each of which needs to be rated on a scale of 1 to 10. Then, the next question needs to pickup the 3 statements which have been rated the lowest, and force the respondent to rank these. An illustration – 
Say the user rated each of the statements as above in Q1. Then Q2 would need to pick up statements # 1,2, and 3 as options and then force the user to rank these. Also, incase the user rates all the same, then the picked up statements would need to be 3-lowest rated random statements. I can change this to a slider if it makes things easier.
How can this be done? Thanks!

HI Vaishnavi
You might need to setup conditions on the question you want to ask the users, wherein we set conditions if Q1 X no. of statement has less than equal to

https://www.qualtrics.com/community/discussion/comment/26100#Comment_26100Hi! I am exploring this "threshold" alternative to my survey question. However, I do not want to set such a cap as I have no clue how high or low the respondents may rate the survey. E.g. if I set the
One of the solution may be to use custom code to get three lowest rating (if more than 3 then random)and store it in three embedded data in Q1. Then in Q2 pipe these embedded data as option.
Vaishnavi - As per the query, you have mentioned that you need a force response if the user select low ratings on the previous question else not.
Alternatively, if the user select the values more than the set condition; then the query should be set up as regular ques. or not forced.

https://www.qualtrics.com/community/discussion/comment/26102#Comment_26102Hi! Can you elaborate on what this code would look like? I would like to do this, but don't know how to write this custom code.
I just achieved this using Loop & Merge.
Loop & Merge
Jynx Thank you so much for looping back, providing a solution and great use of loop & merge! I’m sure this post will help a lot of users with similar use-cases! 
Hi. Can someone shed more light on how to use loop and merge for this? I got it to work if someone chooses the highest value on the matrix, but I cannot make it so that the loop and merge is done with the highest value selected on the matrix (in my case people get to choose from 1 to 6 on a characteristic, and I need future questions to refer to the characteristic they gave the higher scoring, but they don't necessarily give it a scoring of 6 to any of them).
