Conditional Logic

Conditional logic makes a quiz show or hide later questions based on a respondent’s answers, enabling adaptive surveys and assessments tailored to each person.

When to use it

Skip logic: Skip or reveal related questions when a specific option is chosen.
Branching surveys: Route different audiences down different question paths.
Leaner experience: Show only the questions relevant to each respondent, reducing effort.

Conditional logic mainly targets the Assessment type for building adaptive surveys.

Basic concepts

A rule typically consists of:

Trigger condition: Based on the answer to an earlier question (e.g. “Question 1 selected A”).
Action: When the condition is met, show or hide a specified question.

How to configure

The following is a general approach; the actual interface may vary.

Build your questions first and identify which are “trigger” questions and which are the “target” questions being controlled.
Set a show/hide rule on the target question, choosing the trigger question and its answer as the condition.
Use preview to walk through different answer paths and confirm the display logic behaves as expected.

Notes

A trigger condition can only reference questions that come before it, to avoid logic loops.
Hidden questions are not shown to respondents and are not required.
For complex logic, preview each path separately to verify.
