Skipping questions

Support
1

Hi,
I have a question related to skip patterns. I'll use the likes_pizza
example from the website (http://opendatakit.org/help/form-design/xlsform/)
as a reference.

Is it possible to include logic on the likes_pizza question instead of
programming it into the following question? For my survey, questions with
multiple responses give multiple skip patterns. For example, 1 goes to the
next question but 2 skips to the next section and 3 skips to the end of the
survey.

Thanks!
Kalee

Hi Kalee,

Selected is already a logic function and return true or false

So, Yes you can for example display the next questions with this logic
selected(${likes_pizza}, ‘1’)
Then the next section for selected(${likes_pizza}, ‘1’) or
selected(${likes_pizza}, ‘2’) more or less equal to
not(selected(${likes_pizza}, ‘3’))

Hi Kalee,

Thinking of branching as skips ends up making form design more
confusing. ODK doesn't have skips. It has relevance. That is, a prompt
will be show to the user if it's relevant. So if you want a prompt to
show up when likes_pizza is 2, you put "selected(${likes_pizza}, ‘2’)"
as the relevance condition for that prompt.
