Masked Multiple Choice to Rank Order
Example
A Vancouver fitness studio has locations in multiple neighborhoods. Each location has a different selection of classes. The downtown location offers all classes; the Mt. Pleasant location does not offer HIIT, pilates, or bootcamp; and the Yaletown and Kitsilano locations do not offer boxing.
You want to ask participants which classes they have tried at their home studio, how they would rank the classes they tried, and why they ranked a class last. To do this:
- In a Single Choice
question, you ask participants to select their home studio location.
- In a Multiple Choice
question, you ask participants to select the classes they have tried. This
question has masking applied so that only classes available at their home
studio are shown.
- In a Rank Order
question, you carry forward the selected answers from the Multiple Choice
question.
- In a follow-up Long
Answer question, you pipe the Rank Order item that participants ranked last and
ask them why.
