In a survey this type of question allows choosing multiple options by hitting CTRL and click. It might look something like this:

We are about to show you step by step how to implement this question

To add a 'List Box' question to your survey you need to select the Insert > New Question option on the 'Surveys > Questions' page, and then:

  1. Select the 'List Box --- for shorter lists - select one or more'.
  2. Type your question text in the 'Write your question below' text box.
  3. Enter the answer choices text in the 'Write answer choices below' fields.
  4. Select the 'Show/Hide on condition' option if you want to show or hide particular answer choices depending on the respondent's answers to the previous questions.
    For details on using this feature, consult the ' Optional Features' help chapter.
  5. 'Mode: Standard\Quick' Select the Standard mode to input each item in a different line or the Quick mode to input all the answer choices into the text box separating the choices by hitting the Enter key after each item.
  • The New line link allows you to add a new answer line in the Standard mode if needed.
  • The up and down arrow buttons allow you to move your answer choices up and down the list in the Standard mode.
  • The delete button removes the answer choice from the question in the Standard mode. A yellow-colored button means that you are not allowed to delete this answer option because you have respondents who have answered it.
  • You can set a certain number of answers for the respondent to select <more>
  • 'Select answer order' allows you to modify your answer order (randomize, alphabetize, etc) <more>
