Open-ended questions: Free response

In Preely you can ask open-ended questions, where your participants can write a free response. This is a great way to have more qualitative data.

You can choose to add an open-ended question to all your tasks or you can choose to add it as a follow-up after question to know why your particiapnts gave a curtain rating or why they choose exactly that option in a multiple choice question.
Be aware that due to the qualitative nature of the data collected, the analytics is more time consuming compared to e.g. multiple choice or rating questions.

Step-by-step guide to setting up a multiple choice in Preely

1. Welcome your participants
We have written a short welcome to your participants. If you want to change it, just write your own personal welcome.

2. Add tasks and questions
This is where you truly set up your test. Click ‘Insert element’ and create different tasks and ask your participants questions.

2.1 Tasks
When you want your participants to perform a task in your test, you add a task to your test. You write an introduction and then you formulate the task. Try to break down your tasks into small chunks.

2.2 Add prototype
Click Add prototype and upload your design(s), screenshot, Adobe XD-, Figma- or Sketch artboards.

Remember to set an end screen on your tasks. This can either be a:

‘Endpoint’: This means that your participants should click on this certain spot in your prototype to end the task
‘Timer’: This means that you set a timer on the last screen in your test and after a set amount of time, the task is ended

2.2 Questions
When you want to ask your participant questions in your test, you add questions to your test. Choose answer type ‘Free response’.

Step 4. Analytics
On the ‘Summary’ click ‘Answers’ on the question, then you’ll see all answers for that specific question.
