About Rank Order (Drag & Drop) question results
- Find data collected by Rank Order (Drag & Drop) questions in the Results section of your study.
- There are various charts and tables available to view results.
- The chart below shows the total score obtained by each item.
- This score is a sum of the points it gets from each participant. For example, in a rank order question with 6 ranking points:
- Items ranked First = 6 points
- Items ranked Second = 5 points
- Items ranked Third = 4 points
- Items ranked Fourth = 3 points
- Items ranked Fifth = 2 points
- Items ranked Sixth = 1 point
Note: This example shows six ranking points because that's how many items are in this study. If there were three items, there'd be three ranking points.
