Two blocks (randomized) with identical survey - Combine results
Hi Community,
I created a survey with 20 questions in one block and added another block with the same 20 questions, however, added some additional information to one the questions and then randomized the two blocks.
Now, I received almost 300 responses in total, however, whenever I download the data to SPSS I have 150 responses in one block and 150 responses in the other one and instead of 20 variables I have a total of 40 in the output file. It is really difficult to analyze the data as the data is not combined but rather split up into 2 variables. Is there any way to combine the data so Question 1 of block 1 and Question 1 of block 2 are combined as one variable.
Thanks in advance for the help.

This is simple since you are showing one block out of two to the respondents, so you have two sets of data for 150 records in one set of variable and for other 150 in another set of variable right.
So in SPSS just create one extra set of variable and move data from these two set of variables in third set of variable. And then delete these existing two set of variables and also create one extra variable say brand which store 1 or 2. 1 for block1 and 2 for block2.
Using this variable now you can analyse your result.
