Question types: Multi Select

What is it?

A multi select question allows the respondent to select as many options as they like from your response list. However, you may also configure a minimum or maximum response cap. For example, if you have a long list of attributes and want to limit respondents to 2 options max, you can set the maximum number of options to 2.


When to use it?

Use multi select questions for nominal response lists such as a brand list or attributes list, where the options have no natural ranking or numerical distance between the response options?

Tips for using this question type?

  • Try to keep the question text short and concise. We suggest not exceeding 140 characters (excluding spaces), or roughly 30 words
  • Try to keep the individual response options short and concise. We suggest not exceeding 50 characters (excluding spaces), or roughly 10 words
  • Try not to use very long response lists, ideally 10 options or less. If you have a very long list, say 30 options or more we suggest that you split it up across multiple questions
