Slider Scale Question

In a Slider Scale question, respondents are asked to rate or evaluate something by sliding a marker along a linear scale. The scale often ranges from one extreme to another.

Slider scale questions are beneficial because they have the ability to capture nuanced and quantitative data. Unlike fixed-choice questions, slider scales enable respondents to provide a more nuanced or granular response, offering a more detailed or accurate reflection of their opinions.

Creating a Rating Scale Question

To add a Rating Scale question to a survey:

1. On the campaign’s primary questions page, expand the + Add New Question menu, then select Rating Scale.

2. Type the question and format it as necessary using the formatting tools.

3. Under the slider scale preview, insert a start value on the left side and an end value on the right side.

   1. The start and end values must be whole numbers, and the start value must always be less than the end value.

5. At the bottom of the question editor, mark the question as required (toggle on) or optional (toggle off) for the respondents.

Analyzing the Response Data

Rating Scale response data can be found attached to the question within a campaign’s Question Summary. 1-5 rating scales display a tiny graphic with the average rating and a table breakdown of the responses.

 1-10 rating scales display a bar graph with the average rating and the table breakdown of the responses.
