I have a survey with two questions: 1) the first is an Array (Numbers) question type with six checkbox answers for the X-Scale subquestions (multiflexible_checkbox 1) and 2) the second is a List (radio) question type.

What I want is to use the second question to filter only the Y-Scale subquestions (life events) checked as "Happened to me" (the very first checkbox). Right now are filtered absolutely all subquestions regardless of the chosen answer.

I searched all the past day in the manual and in the forum, but I did not understand how I can fix this. Can someone help me to solve this?

I attached a simplified version of my survey (only two checkboxes per line).

Hi,
unfortunately you didn't tell us the version you are using.

Well, it's always the same procedure:

1. create a multipunch question with the same codes and items (hidden) I called it "mevents".
2. create a question of type "equation". Check the checkboxes that refer to the answer "A1" of your array by this equation .
{mevents_SQ01=if(events_SQ01_A1==1,"Y","")}
{mevents_SQ02=if(events_SQ02_A1==1,"Y","")}
...

Explanation:
You know that in an array(numbers) with checkbox design the checked boxes are stored as "1".
And you know that in multiple questions checked subquestions are stored as "Y".
So, if the checkbox in question "events", subquestion "SQ01" and answeroption "A1" is equal "1"
then subquestion "SQ01" of question "mevents" is set to "Y", else stays blank.

Then you can use "mevents" as array filter of the next question.

Example:

Joffm, thank you very much!

A very good explanation. Now I understand the logic behind of this type scenario.

Sorry for the version, it is the 3.14.5+180815, probably I need an update.

Best wishes,
