MaxDiff - Alternatives Method

Metaforms follows the standard way of creating a MaxDiff which is provided by Forsta for the Maxdiff Alternatives method.

You can use the following reference URL from Forsta for creating MaxDiff with Alternatives Method: https://forstasurveys.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/4417360578075-Creating-a-MaxDiff-Question-Alternatives-Method

With 2 columns

After a MaxDiff setup is created it would look like the following:

1. Quota tag to select version

2. Question to store the version selected in the quota

3. Intro question will be programmed (if provided in the QNR)

4. The MaxDiff question should look like the provided image below. It should have a column for the MOST and LEAST along with the exact wordings for those columns as per the QNR. The attributes/rows shown should be based on the QNR, design file and the version selected in the quota.

5. If there is any conditional text that needs to be shown for a particular iteration of the loop - would also be taken care of.

6. If the answer is not provided, validation would raise an error.

7. If the same row is selected for both the MOST and LEAST columns, validation would raise errors.

With 6 Columns

If the MaxDiff has six columns, it would be displayed like the image provided below. The rest of the steps stay the same as 2 Column MaxDiff described above.
