Feature Requests item #573862, was opened at 2002-06-26 00:55 You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=358956&aid=573862&group_id=8956 Category: survey format Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Submitted By: Fredrik Clementz (rebirth) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Ranking questions Initial Comment: A new question type should be added to the question types. That would be a rank question. Let's say you have 10 different things that you'd like a respondent to rank from 1 through 10. Then a specific rank question would be needed. My suggestion is having the 10 options in a list on the left side in a randomised list and in the middle have arrows to move options to a right field, one by one. In the right field an exact same formed type of field is but where the option get's placed. Also what would be good is if you can mark an option and have arrows on the right side of it and move it up or down in the list. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=358956&aid=573862&group_id=8956 |

This is a very important type of question for political surveys (e.g. in Northern Ireland). You can analyse the results either by a de Borda count or by Condorcet comparisons.

A simpler interface is to present the options in a list box, and have an up and down arrow that you use to move options up or down the list. I have already written JavaScript code to do that. Dr. D.

Why can't you use the existing question type: rate(1..5) with the length set to 10? I still can't understand the need for randomisation of survey question choices. Don't get me wrong, randomisation is a neat feature if we were dealing with an online assessment/test but a survey?

We want to force the user to rank items in their preferred order, so they chose a definate number 1, 2, 3, etc. An example question would be similar to: Place the following chores in order of preference: Doing Laundry Doing Dishes Dusting Cleaning Gutters ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Date: 2003-03-14 23:36 Message: Logged In: NO Two things. 1.
