Hello all,

I'm trying to display different question groups randomly in my survey. But it doesn't work as what I want. I have two random questions which generate random numbers. 

• random1 (1 for Choice1.1, 2 for Choice1.2 and 3 for Choice1.3)
  • Groups of Choice 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3 are all put in the randomization group C1.
• random2 (1 for Choice2.1, 2 for Choice2.2 and 3 for Choice2.3)
  • Groups of Choice 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 are all put in the randomization group C2.

Does anybody have idea how can I work it out? Thanks in advance.

 

Hi, 
why didn't you answer the questions at the beginning about your used version, etc.?

Well, there are so many errors.

1. What die you really want to do?
Do you want to show all three groups 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, but in random order?
The you use the randomization group name.

Or do you want to show only one of them, selected randomly?
Then you have to use the random number.

You did both. So I assume you want to show only one group.
In this case the randomization grioup name is useless.

Furthermore you set the "relevance equation" of each second and third question to "0", meaning "not displayed".
Result: Only if the random number is equal 1, this first question is displayed, else nothing at all.

So, please explain your goal better.

Hello Joffm,

I want to show random one of the first three groups (1.1, 1.2, 1.3) and the other random one out of groups 2.1, 2.2, 2.3. 

Best, 

Well,
use the random number(s).
Remove everything else.

Hi Joffm, 

I removed everything and kept the random number in the group relevance. But it still doesn't work as I want. Could you please have a look at my survey setting?


Best, 

I do not know how many times this is explained here.
If you only use "rand(x,y)" the random number changes with each click.
This is the same behaviour as in Excel

Therefore we use this construcht

{if(is_empty(random2),rand(1,3),random2)}
Only if the randoim number is empty, it will be generated, otherwise it stays as it is.

Thank you Joffm for your patience, it works.
