Questionnaire
Questionnaire
The 'QUESTIONNAIRE' offers access to the following options:
1. Adding questions
There are several different types of questions. In the basic and advanced options of each question, you can set the layout, name, limits, visibility of the question, answer values, classify the question as a system variable that can be used for notifications and email invitations, etc.
2. Editing the questionnaire
You can edit the structure of the questionnaire with conditions, loops, blocks, computations and page breaks. You can also edit the whole questionnaire in a condensed view, which is recommended especially for large and complex questionnaires. With the help of the glossary, you can also add definitions to the questions and answers, which are displayed to the respondent when the mouse hovers over a word.
3. Archiving the questionnaire
It is possible to create archive versions of the questionnaire and to restore them from archive files. The questionnaire can also be copied, deleted (irreversibly, except with the help of an administrator) and exported in PDF or RTF (Word) format.
4. Further editing and checking of the questionnaire
It is possible to make batch text corrections by clicking on the 'Find and replace words' icon, to add a page break between all questions (the 'Add page break between all questions' icon), to check the correctness of the conditions set (as an aid to correct any errors, the 'Check the correctness of the conditions set' icon), and to renumerate all questions (to solve the problem of duplicate variable names, the 'Renumerate' icon). All of the above functionality can be found in the advanced settings (click on the three dots icon above the questions). It is also possible to open or close all conditions, blocks and loops by clicking on the 'Open' or 'Close' icons visible above the questions.
5. Library of questions and surveys
You can access a public library from which you can copy questions and surveys, and a personal library (My Library) to which you can add or copy questions and surveys.
Placing Answers on a Stripe
In the 'Table - Classic table' and 'Table - Semantic differential' question types, answers can be shown on stripes. The 'Show answers on stripe' option is located in the question settings, in the 'Basic' tab.
After enabling this option, the following settings become available:
- number of answers - horizontally (from 1 to 12);
- with which number does the stripe start (eg. 0 or 1);
- the number of titles on the stripe's upper part (from 0 to 12).
Example of a survey with answers on a stripe (Net Promoter Score) >>
Due to the customized display of tables on mobile phones, the stripe layout will not be shown on mobile devices (the table will revert to its default layout).

'Take a Picture' Question Type
You can include the 'Take a picture' question type in the questionnaire, which can be found among all question types. The question allows the respondent to take 'selfies' and other photos.
Completing the survey on a mobile device
If the respondent is completing the survey on a mobile device, a camera icon will be displayed for the 'Take a picture' question type. When the icon is clicked, the default photo-taking application opens (if supported by the mobile browser). The respondent is shown the photo taken and then has the option to confirm the displayed photo or cancel and take a new one. When the photo is confirmed, the respondent is returned to the survey, where the photo is also displayed. The respondent can then take another picture if they are not satisfied with the existing one, or delete the picture.
Completing the survey on a computer
If the respondent completes the survey on a computer, the question will be displayed in two ways:
- If the computer has a camera connected, the question will ask for permission to access the camera. Once the user confirms and allows access to the camera, the camera will be displayed on the left side of the screen, and if the user clicks on the camera icon, the photo taken will be displayed on the right side of the screen.
- If the computer does not have a camera, the question behaves in the same way as the 'File upload' question type. The respondent can upload any photo as a file (the prerequisite is a file with an extension indicating an image).
Example of a survey with the 'Take a picture' question type (preview on a computer) >>
In the analyses and data, the photo is stored as a link (URL) to the photo. The survey editor has the possibility to edit the link (delete or replace it).
