Tip: Random distribution and Least Filled concept testing are available for surveys! Both of these methods allow you to achieve even distribution without scripting. For more information, see Quick comparison: Random distribution, Least Filled concept testing, even distribution scripts.
Example
You have 15 ideas of new stationery designs and would like each respondent to rank their 5 favorite designs on a rank order sort question called DESIGN_RANK. You then want them to rate 1 out of the top 5 ranked designs.
Detailed Steps
-
Import the template into your panel:
- Download the PXML template here.
- In the Surveys app, click New Project.
- Under Power Survey, click Import.
- Select the PXML template you downloaded, and click Open.
- Give the power survey an internal name.
- Click Upload.
-
Add the template to your study:
- Create/author your power survey as required.
- Go to the Questionnaire tab of your study.
- Click Library on the Authoring toolbar.
- In the Library Browser, look for the template study in the Studies section, under Pending Studies (the study you created in step 1).
- Expand the template study in the Library Browser and drag the EDSQ15_QUAL_ONE_OF_MAX_15 block into your Questionnaire Tree as required. Do not rename any of the blocks or questions.
- Ensure that DESIGN_RANK question is placed anywhere in the study but before EDSQ15_QUAL_ONE_OF_MAX_15 block.
Note: that DESIGN_RANK is not a question in the template. We are assuming you have a rank order sort question like this in your study, and DESIGN_RANK is just an example question name. Question name does not have to be the same. - Expand EDSQ15_HIDDEN block and delete the conditional sequence IF_EDSQ15_CONCEPTS_QUALIFIED.
Note: This Conditional Sequence is required to pull in the EDSQ15_CONCEPT_QUALIFIED recode question as a dependency. Once the template is within the study, the EDSQ15_CONCEPT_QUALIFIED Conditional Sequence is irrelevant and can be removed.
-
Set up Even Distribution:
- Click on EDSQ15_CONCEPT question and update the answer options with the list of your 15 concept designs. Whatever you insert here will be piped into the concept question and be shown to respondents.
- Click on EDSQ15_CONCEPT question and update the answer options with the list of your 15 concept designs. Whatever you insert here will be piped into the concept question and be shown to respondents.
-
Create your concept questions:
- Author your concept questions in the EDSQ15_QUESTIONS_HERE block. You only need to author one set of questions for all concepts.
- Insert [%EDSQ15_CONCEPT%] pipe into concept questions where you want to show assigned ad image.
- Delete EDSQ15_CONCEPT_PIPE_EXAMPLE text instruction. This is just a placeholder.
-
Create the qualifications for each concept:
- Click on References and Recodes at the bottom of the questionnaire tree.
- Click on EDSQ15_CONCEPT_QUALIFIED recode question. Ensure that the option list here aligns with the option list in EDSQ15_CONCEPT question. There should be 15 responses here.
- Update the recode filter for each concept to reflect the qualification criteria. In this example, the filter for Design 1 is shown in the following screenshot. Similarly, the filter for Design 2 is "DESIGN_RANK_1 IS ONE OF 1,2,3,4,5". The filter for Design 3 is "DESIGN_RANK_2 IS ONE OF 1,2,3,4,5" and so on.
-
Update the disqualification text EDSQ15_NO_QUAL_DQ as required.
- Validate and test your survey.
