Hi,
Any idea why some of our results for open-text questions are in Latin??

Check "Response Type" for those records. Chances are they are "Test" response type. When you generate a test response (you can generate 100s), all text entry fields will be "answered" with Latin. Go to Data & Analysis, Tools, Choose Columns- and choose Response Type. Sort. Remove all Test Responses (also you can get rid of Preview responses here)

      Thank you, mklubeck - that worked. I hadn't noticed that before but the faculty member must have hit that button.

      maxlibris no worries! It's a nice little tool to help you build reports and pre-test the StatsIQ to make sure you're asking right questions by playing with test data ahead of time. Have a great day and stay safe!
