Scoring based on Custom Logic/Scripting

Surveys can be used to compute scores / points in real-time. You can administer tests online and calculate scores and present them to the respondents immediately. Scoring Logic can be used for Tests, Quizes, etc.

Consider the following example:

Q1: What is the Capital of the US?

1. New York
2. Seattle
3. Washington DC
4. Chicago

Q2: How many States are there in the US?

1. 20
2. 45
3. 50
4. 63

Q3: US Independence day is celebrated on:

1. 4th, June
2. 4th, July
3. 14th, July
4. 24th, Jan

Q4: The first President of the US was:

1. Washington, George
2. Adams, John
3. Jefferson, Thomas
4. Madison, James

Q5: The Statue of Liberty was gifted to US by:

1. Canada
2. France
3. England
4. Russia

In the above example survey the correct answers are as follows:

• Q1 = 3
• Q2 = 3
• Q3 = 2
• Q4 = 1
• Q5 = 2

This script can be used in a Custom Logic / Scoring Engine type question. For help on adding a Custom Logic/Scoring Engine type question please see help links below.

#set($tot=0)

#if (${Q1} == 3)
   #set($tot = $tot + 1)
#end 

#if (${Q2} == 3)
   #set($tot = $tot + 1)
#end 

#if (${Q3} == 2)
   #set($tot = $tot + 1)
#end 

#if (${Q4} == 1)
   #set($tot = $tot + 1)
#end 

#if (${Q5} == 2)
   #set($tot = $tot + 1)
#end

#set($score = $tot)

 

Consider the above 2 matrix questions. Question codes for the matrix questions are Q1 and Q2 respectively. The score can be calculated as follows:

#set($score=${Q1_1} + ${Q1_2} + ${Q1_3}) [This will calculate the score for the Matrix Q1]

#set($score=${Q2_1} + ${Q2_2} + ${Q2_3}) [This will calculate the score for the Matrix Q2]

Score can be referenced directly using the Question Code.

Score for Matrix Q1: $Q1
Score for Matrix Q2: $Q2

The above example uses default values for the score. You can also set up custom score values for each individual option.
