Hello! I am using a scale which is typically rated from 0 to 100, so rather than use radiobuttons and have a big ugly question I decided to go with a scale. Unfortunately, a couple of those questions are supposed to be reverse-scored. Is there any way to reverse-score a slider item? Or should I just forego the creation of summary scores until after the data are in? Thank you!

And by "scale" I mean slider! If that wasn't clear.

If you have a slider ranging from 0 to 100, you should be able to reverse-score it mathematically by calculating 100 minus the slider-response.
<values> / score = 0 </values>
<block myblock> / trials = [1=mypage] </block>
<surveypage mypage> / ontrialend = [values.score = slider.a.response + (100-slider.b.response)] / questions = [1=a; 2=b] </surveypage>
<slider a> / caption = "Scoring: Normal" / range = (0,100) </slider>
<slider b> / caption = "Scoring: Reversed" / range = (0,100) </slider>
<data> / columns = [date time subject trialnum trialcode slider.a.response slider.b.response values.score] / separatefiles = true </data>
Slider 'b' in the above would be the one that's reverse-scored.
