# survey-multi-choice
|
|
|
|
Current version: 1.1.1. [See version history](https://github.com/jspsych/jsPsych/blob/main/packages/plugin-survey-multi-choice/CHANGELOG.md).
|
|
|
|
The survey-multi-choice plugin displays a set of questions with multiple choice response fields. The participant selects a single answer.
|
|
|
|
## Parameters
|
|
|
|
In addition to the [parameters available in all plugins](../overview/plugins.md#parameters-available-in-all-plugins), this plugin accepts the following parameters. Parameters with a default value of *undefined* must be specified. Other parameters can be left unspecified if the default value is acceptable.
|
|
|
|
Parameter | Type | Default Value | Description
|
|
----------|------|---------------|------------
|
|
questions | array | *undefined* | An array of objects, each object represents a question that appears on the screen. Each object contains a prompt, options, required, and horizontal parameter that will be applied to the question. See examples below for further clarification.`prompt`: Type string, default value is *undefined*. The string is prompt/question that will be associated with a group of options (radio buttons). All questions will get presented on the same page (trial).`options`: Type array, defualt value is *undefined*. An array of strings. The array contains a set of options to display for an individual question.`required`: Type boolean, default value is null. The boolean value indicates if a question is required('true') or not ('false'), using the HTML5 `required` attribute. If this parameter is undefined, the question will be optional. `horizontal`:Type boolean, default value is false. If true, then the question is centered and the options are displayed horizontally. `name`: Name of the question. Used for storing data. If left undefined then default names (`Q0`, `Q1`, `...`) will be used for the questions.
|
|
randomize_question_order | boolean | `false` | If true, the display order of `questions` is randomly determined at the start of the trial. In the data object, `Q0` will still refer to the first question in the array, regardless of where it was presented visually.
|
|
preamble | string | empty string | HTML formatted string to display at the top of the page above all the questions.
|
|
button_label | string | 'Continue' | Label of the button.
|
|
autocomplete | boolean | false | This determines whether or not all of the input elements on the page should allow autocomplete. Setting this to true will enable autocomplete or auto-fill for the form.
|
|
|
|
## Data Generated
|
|
|
|
In addition to the [default data collected by all plugins](../overview/plugins.md#data-collected-by-all-plugins), this plugin collects the following data for each trial.
|
|
|
|
Name | Type | Value
|
|
-----|------|------
|
|
response | object | An object containing the response for each question. The object will have a separate key (variable) for each question, with the first question in the trial being recorded in `Q0`, the second in `Q1`, and so on. The responses are recorded as the name of the option label selected (string). If the `name` parameter is defined for the question, then the response object will use the value of `name` as the key for each question. This will be encoded as a JSON string when data is saved using the `.json()` or `.csv()` functions. |
|
|
rt | numeric | The response time in milliseconds for the participant to make a response. The time is measured from when the questions first appear on the screen until the participant's response(s) are submitted. |
|
|
question_order | array | An array with the order of questions. For example `[2,0,1]` would indicate that the first question was `trial.questions[2]` (the third item in the `questions` parameter), the second question was `trial.questions[0]`, and the final question was `trial.questions[1]`. This will be encoded as a JSON string when data is saved using the `.json()` or `.csv()` functions. |
