Multiple choice question logic

Hi there - I am designing a questionnaire with multiple choice questions in it. Want

E.g. Choose which fruit you eat:

  • Banana
  • Apple
  • I don’t eat either of these 

I would like people to be able to select both “banana” and “apple”, if they like, but it doesn’t make sense if they select “apple” and “I don’t eat any of these”. Is there a way os using logic that I can specify that if “I don’t eat any of these” is the answer, then no other selections are permitted?

Thanks! 

@NickyH - welcome to the community from another user

the way to do this at the moment, given the nature of the application, is to have logic branching/calculation set up on your question along this line .. i am assuming this is Q1 in the series for ease 

  • on q1 you have the following logic rule:
    • if q1 = c (i don’t eat either of these) And q1=A and q1=B then jumpto S1 (a statement page)
    • if q1=c AND q1=a then jumpto S1
    • if q1=c AND q1=B then jumpto  S1
    • otherwise jumpto q2
  • on S1, the statement page you put a message that says something like “you cannot choose I don’t eat either of these” AND one or more of the choices. Please return to the question and make an appropriate choice”
    • set the logic rule to always jump to q1 - forces them to go back and make the correct selection 

does that help??
