How do I set up a matrix of questions?

What is a matrix of questions?

A matrix of questions is a group of individual questions whose responses share a set of radio buttons that represent a range of choices along a subjective scale.

The matrix of questions below has 4 questions and 5 response options.

The matrix question is: Please indicate your evaluation of Dr. Smith (1=Poor, 5=Fantastic) - The matrix question has 2 objectives:

  • Gives the respondent a frame of reference for the individual questions
  • Provides a scale of assessment options (options can be numbers (1-2-3-4-5 or 5-4-3-2-1) OR words: (not satisfied, satisfied, very satisfied)
