Creating a new survey group

Before adding a survey group, prepare a survey form and its questions. You can use an existing form or create a new form.

After creating a form, it’s time to add questions to it. There are different options for adding questions:

  • For adding a few new questions, it’s easiest to add them manually
  • To add many new questions, it’s convenient to import them (use for Radio and Free text type of questions)
  • Add existing questions from the questions pool

NB! When using question categories, assign 2. or lower level category to a question. 1. level categories are used for general grouping of question categories.

You can use different types of questions in surveys:

  1. Radio – multi-choice question to which the respondent can choose one answer
  2. Checkbox – multi-choice question to which the respondent can choose many answers
  3. Free text – the respondent writes the answer from scratch
  4. Scale – an assessment. You can choose how many points the scale has and define what the points stand for when adding the question.
  5. Matrix-Scale – use this type when you wish to use the same scale structure to assess different aspects/situations. When adding this question, the rows represent the aspects/situations. A separate scale is provided for every row (the scale is defined when adding the question).

Surveys can be filled out in multiple languages – to add translations to the questions, open the question’s detail view (by clicking on the question’s name) and click Manage translations.
