Add Branching to Multiple Choice Questionnaire Questions

Branching is another term for "skip logic," which lets you design Questionnaires that changes what question the respondent sees next, based on how they answer the current multiple choice question. Basically, it creates a custom survey that varies based on a respondent's answers.

 

For example, you create a survey that includes the following multiple choice question.

What type of pet do you have?

A. Cat

B. Dog

C. Fish

D. None of the above

Depending on the answer the respondent chooses, the next question varies.

  • If the respondent chooses A (cat), you may want to follow up with "What brand of scratching post does your cat use"?
  • Or if the respondent chooses B (Dog), you may want the next question to be "Is your dog a Retriever"? and so forth. 

In the same way, Keet allows you to add branding to multiple choice questions in its Questionnaires.
