Types of questions in Teamgage Surveys
- Short answer: This is the perfect question where you want a 1-2 line answer (up to 180 characters)
- Long answer: Add in a long answer question where you want a detailed answer (up to 1000 characters)
- Single select: Use single-answer, multiple choice when you only want a single option. The question format is a radio button (circle buttons with list of options), where a person can only click one answer.
- Multi select: A multiple-answer, multiple choice question allows people to select more than one option. The format is a check box (square buttons with list of options)
- Scale*: A rating scale question displays a scale of answer options from a range (Eg. 1-5 or 0-10). The scale moves from left (worst score) to right (best score).
- Likert*: Create a group of related scale questions. The question uses statements and a respondent then indicates how much they agree or disagree with that statement.
* Both Scale and Likert questions will be automatically scored and enable you to generate an Overall Survey Score (Learn more about Scorable question types in Teamgage Surveys)
