Hi
Is it possible for me to group several of my questions into 1 table format. The problem is i am using sematic differential scales..i.e.
unhappy - Happy with a 7 point rating scale, so below that i want to place other traits so that they form one table rather than 1 separate question for each scale…so what i would like my subjects to see is smt like the example below:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7
unhappy Happy
Boring Lively
dishonest Honest

right now each trait is a separate question ..for example:
Q1)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
unhappy Happy

Q2)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Boring Lively

Q3)
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Honest dishonest

I have used the Table questions set up for questions where i don’t require labels on both sides of a likert scale…for example:

strongly disagree agree neutral disagree strongly dis
happy
sad
fun

But this set up is impossible for the semantic differential scale above with labels on both ends (unhappy - happy)

If you have a way to allow labels on both ends, with a rating scale of 1 to 7 within the same table then do let me know

thanks

For the title of the column, you could change it to:
Unhappy<br />1
<br />2
<br />3
<br />4
<br />5
<br />6
Happy<br />7
.
Making sure to leave the reporting values the same (1,2,3,etc). This is simply adding an XHTML break <br /> to the title to give you that effect.

Hi, Meryem.

You’re right. It isn’t possible to put labels on both ends of the scale. Sorry.
