Hi,
I actually want to pick up this topic again. Since there are two issues.
1. I would like to use the bucket drop system to implement a
Q-Sort system
. A quite fundamental part of research in social sciences. It allows for a researcher to not only ask for the importance of specific items on a scale, but also allows to examine the interrelationship inbetween these items and the subjective importance they are given in relation to others.
Short practical example how it works out:
A participant is given the task to sort 54 value items according to how good they discribe himself. He has to sort them into categories ranging from 1 - very good to 9 - very bad. What differs Q-Sort from Likert scaling is, is that in the more extreme the categories get ( 1- very good; 9 - very bad) the less items can be put into a categorie. It therefore forces the participant to rank the items. In practise this would look like this:
1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 -->
Rating 1 very good to 9 very bad
2 - 4 - 6 - 9 - 12 - 9 - 6 - 4 - 2. -->
Items available to put into a category
Is it possible to implement this format into the bucket sorting system?
2. When I try to add these changes to the templates already in place by my university something seems to go wrong. In the screenshot attached you can see that I copied your examplatory question in my universities template (with amended .css & .js file) but there seems to be a code error. Is it possible to provide a template for the bucket sorting that does not coflict with other templates?
Thank you a lot for your help
