Rab, I thought a quiz has only one ‘correct’ answer from a multiple choice, and that therefore all answers except that one score zero while the correct one scores one point.

Am I wrong on that?

Ollie,
You said:

Not sure what you mean by scoring as there is no sense in scoring surveys.

I’d like to use the plugin for tests in which
– there’s no right or wrong answer
– questions have multiple-choice answers, and each potential answer has a score

For instance, a personal-hygiene test has 20 questions. One of the questions is:
Question: When you approach people at a party, do they:
(1) Gag and run away? (0 points)
(2) Smile thinly but hold their breath (1 point)
(3) Shake your hand but ostentatiously wipe down afterwards (2 points)
(4) Act normal (3 points)
(5) Smile seductively and remove an article of clothing (4 points)

I’d like to be able to specify the points scores in brackets above for each multiple-choice answer, and then have the test produce a total score at the end. The scoring might mean:
– Under 20: Take a bath, man
– 20-40: Change your deodorant
– 40-60: You’re doing fine
– 60 or more: You must be buying the right perfume

Ollie, sorry to be a dummy but can you explain how Likert scoring works in the plugin?

I’d like to implement 2.7.1, and I want to run a survey which will score people’s Likert answers as 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5, but I don’t know how to do this.

Congratulations on a great plug-in, guys.

I think there will be plenty of users who will find items 4 and 6 really valuable, and I’m certainly one of them. I can’t start to use it until you implement them (or something like them). Items 7 and 8 less important, abut still really valuable.

Ollie, can you give some visibility about whether/when you think you guys might be able to build it?

Thanks!
