Priority question

You can provide feedback for the priority question in two different manners. You can choose to feed back what rank the respondent has chosen for a particular answer or you can choose to feed back what answer the respondent has chosen for a rank.

If you select an answer in the interface for the priority question, then you will be presented with an input box for each rank. You can provide the information that has to be placed in the destination database for each rank that a respondent can assign to the answer you have selected. When the respondent ranks the answer with a particular rank, the value that you have provided for that rank will be used. Essentially, you will receive feedback for the question How did the respondent rank item X?

If the respondent does not rank the selected answer, the option that you have selected for not answering a question will be used.

The value that is below the rank that the respondent gives to the question will be used. The values that you can provide depend on the data type of the destination column. For the string type, you can enter any text string. For the numeric
type, you can provide any numerical vale. If the column is of type date, then you will be able to select any date and the value <<DateParticipated>>, which will be replaced by the date at which the respondent completes the survey. For the boolean data type, you will be able to select true or false.

If you would like to feed back what answer the respondent has chosen for a particular rank, you can select a rank in the interface for the priority question. The information that you provide for any answer will be used when the respondent ranks any answer with the selected rank. The feedback works in a similar manner as the multiple choice question.
If you choose a rank, you will receive feedback to the question What did the respondent rank as rank X?

When you choose a rank, the values that you can provide also depend on the data type of the destination column. If the respondent does not use the rank that you have selected, the option that you have selected for not answering a question will be used.
