Changing text in variables based on calculation of scores

Hi @p1x3lman Welcome to the community! Glad you were able to find @john.desborough ‘s post from earlier.  Just to double check, are the statements appearing after all of your questions? If not, you’ll first want to be sure the statements are the last questions to appear on your form. 

Hi @Liz and @john.desborough - thanks so much for your rapid responses and your assistance.
I should have been clearer in my explanation…

I don’t need to tally a ‘total’ score from each of the question groups, just a reference of the ‘score’ and the associated ‘response’ against each of the skills in a summary slide, that will be presented at the end of the entire form. See below…

Likert calculations and relative responses:

• If [score] ≤0 (for each skill group), [response] = “You might want to consider this skill needing your attention for future improvement.”
• If [score] >0 (for each skill group), [response] = “Seems like you're ok with this skill for now.”

So…

for the score variables for each group, should I create separate variables?

i.e. skill1_score, skill2_score...etc…

and then attach the ‘default’ response statements based on the results of the calculations?

If yes, then typeform isn’t rendering the ‘replace’ variable function with alternative text (see screenshot 3 in my initial post).

Any assistance is massively appreciated!!!

cheers,

JD

@p1x3lman - the problem is that using the score variable for each section/skill is going to have the single variable score overwritten every time.. hence the reason why i suggest using a set of variables (i referred to them as sub_score_N ie for sub_score_1 or score_skill1 etc.) that way you have a separate ‘scoring’ variable for each skill/section

step one: get all the sub_score variables (or whatever you want to call them) created first and make sure they are tallying up the correct point for the responses. 

once that is done, then you should be able to get the replace logic to work. 

start with step one.

Thanks so much John - I’ll be online working on this later tonight (in 3 hrs or so)...are you around then? What’s your timezone?

eastern time zone.. and back at the desk around 830 eastern time.. the early morning shift is already spoken for here today lol

Let us know how the form building goes for you, @p1x3lman ! Additionally, it might be worth reaching out to our support team here for more immediate 1-1 support, too. 

Hi @john.desborough and @Liz - this is why I love this tool...and developing more love for this community...well at least for the both of you. :)

Good news, a good friend with a mathematical brain assisted me with the calculations on the score.
The variable recommendation worked a treat - thanks so much for the time invested in responding to assist me.

In return, I’ll post a detailed extract on how the final solution was put together.

Many thanks and much gratitude! 

Glad to hear @p1x3lman !! cheers to you and a happier weekend!
