Strip Formatting
This feature allows you to remove all text formatting for selected questions and return them to default.
Auto-number Questions
This feature allows you to automatically renumber your questions. Click on the numbering type to change. Remember that these numbers will not appear to the survey responders.
- Sequential numbering renumbers the questions from beginning to end starting with 1 (Q1, Q2….)
- Block Numbering renumbers the questions based on the block. (Block 1: Q1.1, Q1.2; Block 2: Q2.1, Q2.2)
- Internal ID numbering will change the question label to the original question ID generated when you first created the question. (QID1, QID2, etc. – The prefix will remain Q)
- Changing the Prefix allows you to change the prefix to any label you wish to use. Note that SPSS requires variable labels to start with letters, not numbers.
Check Survey Accessibility
Determines whether your survey is accessible to people with disabilities.
E-mail Triggers
A trigger can be used to send an email message to yourself or others each time a survey is completed (default) or each time a certain condition is met during the survey (click “add a condition)
- In the body of the email, a summary of that particular survey response can also be sent.
- The email trigger is useful when you are using Qualtrics for a reservation form or some other “survey” that will have simple and periodic responses that would be more convenient to receive through email, rather than logging into Qualtrics repeatedly.
- An advantage to using the trigger to send responses through email is that the recipient doesn’t need to know how to use Qualtrics to retrieve results.
Panel Triggers
A trigger can be used to add a respondent to an existing panel each time a survey is completed (default) or each time a certain condition is met during the survey (click “add a condition)
Essential panel fields will be updated; you can also add question responses and other embedded data (add additional fields)
Quotas
Quotas can be set based on responses to a question or based on embedded data (embedded data must be included in the survey flow). NOTE: Use caution when using the quota feature to shut down a survey after a certain number of completed responses. If many people have entered the survey simultaneously, there could be problems with the survey shutting down properly and/or too many survey responses will be collected.
Conjoint Analysis
Qualtrics currently supports only the Self-Explicated Model. In this model, the respondents are asked "direct" questions about the desirability of a particular list of products and profiles.
Translate Survey
This option allows you to create foreign translations of your question and answer choices, either using "google translate" or by typing your own translations.
Scoring
Scoring allows you to set point values for multiple choice, matrix, and text entry questions. Feedback can be displayed after each question and at the end of the survey.
Test Survey
The test survey feature allows you to generate responses to your survey before you actually collect data. This allows you to determine how your data will appear. You can determine how many responses you would like to generate, and then go to "View Results" to view how the data looks.
Import Survey
Your survey can be imported as an XML (.qsf - Qualtrics Survey Format) or .txt file. See example .txt formatting at [1]
Export Survey
Your survey can be exported as an XML (.qsf - Qualtrics Survey Format) file. Please make sure that the correct current survey is selected in the "Current Survey" drop down box.
