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.

You store the selected traits in <item> elements. To display them later in the <likert>, you need to set up <text> elements referencing those item elements and then display those <text> elements via the likert's /stimulusframes as in:

<likert ptrait1>
/ stimulusframes=[1=positivetrait1 ]
/ anchors=[1="1 - Not at all characteristic"; 2="2"; 3="3"; 4="4"; 5="5"; 6="6"; 7= "7", 8="8"; 9="9 - Completely characteristic of my partner"]
/ position=(50, 90)
</likert>

<text positivetrait1>
/ items = positems
/ select = 1
</text>

and so forth.

</likert>

You store the selected traits in <item> elements. To display them later in the <likert>, you need to set up <text> elements referencing those item elements and then display those <text> elements via the likert's /stimulusframes as in:

<likert ptrait1>
/ stimulusframes=[1=positivetrait1 ]
/ anchors=[1="1 - Not at all characteristic"; 2="2"; 3="3"; 4="4"; 5="5"; 6="6"; 7= "7", 8="8"; 9="9 - Completely characteristic of my partner"]
/ position=(50, 90)
</likert>

<text positivetrait1>
/ items = positems
/ select = 1
</text>

and so forth.

So the "/ select = " in the text syntax you added will call up the first item of the 4 created in "positems"?

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.

Yes, exactly.

You store the selected traits in <item> elements. To display them later in the <likert>, you need to set up <text> elements referencing those item elements and then display those <text> elements via the likert's /stimulusframes as in:

<likert ptrait1>
/ stimulusframes=[1=positivetrait1 ]
/ anchors=[1="1 - Not at all characteristic"; 2="2"; 3="3"; 4="4"; 5="5"; 6="6"; 7= "7", 8="8"; 9="9 - Completely characteristic of my partner"]
/ position=(50, 90)
</likert>

<text positivetrait1>
/ items = positems
/ select = 1
</text>

and so forth.

So the "/ select = " in the text syntax you added will call up the first item of the 4 created in "positems"?



> So the "/ select = " in the text syntax you added will call up the first item of the 4 created in "positems"?

Yes, exactly.

Brilliant thanks. I think I'm nearly there except I'm getting an error for my survey page that includes these likert questions and I can't figure out what the issue is.

The error is: " surveypage.traitsurvey questions  Could not locate element 'ptrait1'. "

My syntax is:

<text positivetrait1>
/ items = positems
/ select = 1
</text>

<likert ptrait1>
/ stimulusframes=[1=positivetrait1]

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.

Veronica

I just realized that likert is a trial element not a survey page element and I resolved the issue by using the information in here: https://www.millisecond.com/download/library/v2/CustomLikert/customlikert.zip 

The only issue I'm still having is that my likert anchors/responses labels are presenting in the same size font as the rest of the stimuli. Is there a way just to adjust the font size for the scale anchor?

<likert ptrait1>

/ anchors=[1="1 - Not at all characteristic"; 2="2"; 3="3"; 4="4"; 5="5"; 6="6"; 7= "7", 8="8"; 9="9 - Completely characteristic of my partner"]

You store the selected traits in <item> elements. To display them later in the <likert>, you need to set up <text> elements referencing those item elements and then display those <text> elements via the likert's /stimulusframes as in:

<likert ptrait1>
/ stimulusframes=[1=positivetrait1 ]
/ anchors=[1="1 - Not at all characteristic"; 2="2"; 3="3"; 4="4"; 5="5"; 6="6"; 7= "7", 8="8"; 9="9 - Completely characteristic of my partner"]
/ position=(50, 90)
</likert>

<text positivetrait1>
/ items = positems
/ select = 1
</text>

and so forth.

So the "/ select = " in the text syntax you added will call up the first item of the 4 created in "positems"?



> So the "/ select = " in the text syntax you added will call up the first item of the 4 created in "positems"?

Yes, exactly.

Brilliant thanks. I think I'm nearly there except I'm getting an error for my survey page that includes these likert questions and I can't figure out what the issue is.

The error is: " surveypage.traitsurvey questions  Could not locate element 'ptrait1'. "

My syntax is:

<text positivetrait1>
/ items = positems
/ select = 1
</text>

<likert ptrait1>
/ stimulusframes=[1=positivetrait1]
/ anchors=[1="1 - Not at all characteristic"; 2="2"; 3="3"; 4="4"; 5="5"; 6="6"; 7= "7", 8="8"; 9="9 - Completely characteristic of my partner"]
/ buttonvalues = [1="1"; 2="2"; 3="3"; 4="4"; 5="5"; 6="6"; 7="7"; 8="8"; 9="9"]
/ numpoints = 9
/ position=(50, 90)
</likert>

... 
...

<surveypage traitsurvey>
/ questions = [1=ptrait1; 2=ptrait2; 3=ptrait3; 4=ptrait4; 5=ntrait1; 6=ntrait2; 7=ntrait3; 8=ntrait4]
/ showquestionnumbers = FALSE
/ showpagenumbers = FALSE
</surveypage>



I just realized that likert is a trial element not a survey page element and I resolved the issue by using the information in here: https://www.millisecond.com/download/library/v2/CustomLikert/customlikert.zip 

The only issue I'm still having is that my likert anchors/responses labels are presenting in the same size font as the rest of the stimuli. Is there a way just to adjust the font size for the scale anchor?




Actually I solved that issue as well! Thanks for your earlier help. It really helped me get past my block.

Cheers
