What is a multiple-choice grid?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before diving into how you can set up such a field, we firstly need to understand what it is exactly. A multiple-choice grid field has a specific format: you have a main question label, but on one axis we have different aspects concerning the same question and on another axis you have the possible answers for each question.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s give an example for a better understanding. Let\u2019s say that you are interested in finding out how much your respondents agree or disagree with some statements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to create multiple-choice grid field<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Starting from a blank form, the first thing you have to do is to add on your form a multiple-choice grid field. Let\u2019s change the type of question for the first field that is added by default on your Google form. Click on the dropdown that shows the type of field and choose the Multiple choice grid. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The multiple-choice grid field has a different type of layout comparing it with the rest of the fields Google Forms offers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the left side, you will have to provide the questions that are going to be displayed on the row. On the right side, you will have to provide the statements that are going to be displayed on columns. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s recreate together the question \u201cHow would you rate your class\/program experience?\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

First thing that we need to do is to provide the question label. Click within the text box and write the question text.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since we want to find out from our respondents how they would rate different aspects of the class\/program experience, on the row side we need to provide the aspects we want to have evaluated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We write them one by one, one below the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Next step would be to provide the degrees of evaluation for each aspect above. Write each degree of evaluation under the Columns section. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

All done! You have just set up your first multiple choice grid field. Now we can play around with customizing it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to receive an answer for each statement, then you need to enable Require a response in each row.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
