List of Textboxes Question Type
What is this?
This question type allows respondents to write multiple short open text field answers with individual labels in a single question.
When would I use this?
For example, if you wanted to ask respondents for their favorite movie by genre you can provide the labels: Drama, Comedy, Foreign and Western. Respondents can then fill in each textbox with their favorite films. You can define the textbox width (by number of characters) and choose to position the labels on the left or right side of the input box. This question type is great when you are collect short text responses to lists of prompted questions.
How does this Report?
Reporting Example
Within our Summary Reports, you will see an appendix element for each row of your List of Textboxes. Inside of each of these, the data will display each unique response and the count of how many respondents answered that way.
Exporting Example
Within our CSV/EXCEL exports, similar to the Summary report, row from your List of Textboxes will have it’s own column header. It will display the row header, then the question.
