This guideline will show you how to build and set up a survey with Cint respondents.
1. Create a survey in Surveypal.
Some surveys will need a Screen out -question with which you can exclude respondents who don't meet your qualifications for completing the survey. Screen out -questions should be in the first page(s) of the survey so that respondents outside the target group don’t have to answer in vain.
You can create needed redirections with Answer Paths (more information here). Remember to check that at least the Screen out -questions are set as mandatory, this way we can ensure the redirect works properly.
Below is an example of a Screen out -question. In this example we want to exclude respondents from certain fields of work.
Example of Answer Paths when we want to prevent respondent's who choose Food industry from answering to the rest of the questions. You can set up conditions for multiple pages at the same time.
2. Open survey Build-view, Settings and copy the code below to the Snippet-tab textbox labeled " Body bottom:". By default surveys will change the Next-button text to "Submit" if current choices would guide the respondent out of the survey. Using this code the first page of the survey will always have the text "Next" on the navigation button, which prevents respondent from being able to figure out which questions would lead them out of the survey. This way we can ensure only our target group will answer to the survey. If the Screen out -question is on another page than the first, you can edit the value 0 larger.
<script>
if(SurveypalAPI.getPage() == 0)
{
jQuery(".primary.right").text("Next");
}
</script>
3. Test the survey in Preview to make sure all the redirects work as intended.
4. Launch the survey.
5. Login to Cint and create a new project. Select category, click Continue and define basic settings.
- Incidence rate = how many percent of the target group can in your opinion answer the survey? (doesn’t screen out) –> Lower incidence rate, bigger price
- Set the regions, profiling and quotas if needed.
6. Click 'Create project' on the right-hand side. Name the project and fill out the contact information.
7. Now that screened out respondents have been skipped past the questions, they need to be redirected to Cint screen out page. Project specific screen out -links can be found in Cint. (Quota full -link cannot be used.)
7. Return to Surveypal, keep Cint-tab open.
8. Go to survey Manage view, click 'Automations' and create automations that redirect the 'Screen out' respondents and 'Complete' respondents to their correct Cint-pages.
Screenout
- Select automation: "Redirect recipient without showing the thank you page to the following address"
- Paste the Screenout-link from Cint to the address field
- Create additional rules that match the screenout logic in your survey
Complete
- Select automation: "Redirect recipient without showing the thank you page to the following address"
- Paste the Complete-link from Cint to the address field
- Create additional rules that match the options that allow the respondent to complete the survey
9. To acquire the correct survey and test links to Cint, use our Cint link generator or contact helpdesk@surveypal.com.
10. Add the links from the generator to their correct locations in the Cint survey links setup. Write screenout and testing instructions.
11. Make sure everything is in its place and click 'Confirm'.
12. Accept terms and conditions and click 'Run project'. Cint personnel will contact you quite soon and they will test the survey and links.
13. Once the responses have been collected, your Cint contact person will ask for the complete respondent ID's.
- Create a complete filter in the survey Analyze-view (you can use same conditions in the filter that were used in the complete automation, excluding the condition 'answer is ready' that is needed only in the Automations)
- Create a report of the complete responses to Excel
- Copy column A ID's from the Excel Data-tab to a new spreadsheet
- Send the new spreadsheet to your Cint contact person
