Multiple Choice question other specify | XM Community
Skip to main content

Hi, I'm new with Qualtrics and I have a type of question I use a lot. It looks like for example :
"Which sports do you practice? (Multiple answers allowed)
soccer ; basketball ; volleyball ; handball ; tennis ; cycling ; other specify"
I want that when people completed the Text Entry of the other specify (or when they select it), a new modality "other2 specify" appear for the question. And an "other3 specify" if "other2 specify" is selected and so on.
Is there an other way than create a new question "other2 specify" with a Display logic base on "other specify", to do that ?

hi Bérengère You can create a new text entry question for each other and have a display logic on it show it appears only if previous other box is answered.

Don't forget to check "In page" option in display logic. This is how display logic will look like:

Hi,
You can add this javascript code to the addOnReady function :
jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" li.Selection:gt(3)").hide(); // where gt(x) is the first "other specify" choice minus 1
jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" .InputText").focus( function() {
  var isInputText = document.activeElement instanceof HTMLInputElement && document.activeElement.type == 'text';
  if (isInputText) {
      li2 = document.activeElement.parentNode.parentNode.nextSibling.nextSibling.show();
    }
  });


Thanks Guys
