Hi All

I have a task where participants generate 4 positive and 4 negative traits by selecting them from a list (using the checkbox element). I would then like to have participants answer questions about each of the traits they selected later in the survey using a likert scale option.

I've posted my syntax below. All of the checkbox options work perfectly. But I'm not quite sure how to get the individual traits to pull up - so I'm not sure what to put in the stimulus frame for the likert element etc.

I have also attached my full syntax file in case that is useful.

Any help or suggestions are appreciated.
