      Question Show Logic

      How to use question show logic in the survey builder, along with explanations of the different types of rules you can build based on different question types

      Show Logic is essentially a set of rules that determines which questions a person sees based on how they answer a previous question. Instead of showing every participant every single question, show logic keeps the survey flow relevant and allows you to ask tailored follow up questions based on information you learn about someone earlier on in a survey. 

      • You can create individual rules, and/or create rule groups that allow you to combine multiple conditions from different questions. You can also use a combination of both on the same question
      • Rules and rule groups can be connected with either "And" - this rule AND this rule must be true, or connected with "OR" - this rule OR that rule can be true.

      You will be able to set different rules based on the different types of questions that were asked:

      Rule

      Definition

      Applies To

      Any of

      If choice 1, or choice 2, or choice 3 etc. were selected

      Multiple Choice

      None of

      If neither choice 1, nor choice 2, nor choice 3 etc. were selected

      Multiple Choice

      Exactly

      If exactly choice 1, and choice 2, and choice 3 etc. were selected

      Multiple Choice

      Not Exactly

      If not exactly choice 1, and choice 2, and choice 3 etc. were selected

      Multiple Choice

      At least [#]

      If at least # choices were selected from the list available

      Multiple Choice

      Any response

      If any of the responses were selected / any response given

      → this is basically, were they asked to answer this question

      All Question Types

      No response

      If none of the responses were selected / any response given 

      → this is basically, were they not asked to answer this question

      All Question Types

      Contains

      If the response contains [something]

      → looking for any match, even a partial one

      Open End

      Numeric (coming soon!)

      Does not contain

      If the response does not contain [something]

      → looking for any match, even a partial one

      Open End

      Numeric (coming soon!)

      is exactly

      If the response is EXACTLY [something]

      → response must match the input exactly, no more and no less

      Open End

      Numeric (coming soon!)

      Is not exactly

      If the response is not EXACTLY [something]

      → response must match the input exactly, no more and no less

      Open End

      Numeric (coming soon!)

      Is greater than

      If the response is greater than [number]

      Numeric (coming soon!)

      Is greater than or equal to

      If the response is greater than or equal to [number]

      Numeric (coming soon!)

      Is less than

      If the response is less than [number]

      Numeric (coming soon!)

      Is less than or equal to

      If the response is less than or equal to [number]
