Questions with Skip Logic

Learn how to use the Assessment Builder to add skip logic to your questions

In the 6clicks Assessment Builder, we can add logic to questions that will hide them based on the responses to previous questions. To set up we need to have a question that we want to hide based on certain conditions and a previously answered question to check those conditions.

Requirements

Before we set up a question to skip, first ensure the previous question is either a multiple-choice or dropdown menu question.

Note - Parent/Child questions also can have logic applied to them as long as the child sub-question is also either a multiple-choice or dropdown menu question.

You can review your question type here:

In the Assessment Builder > Select the conditional question

Logic Setup

Select the question you want to apply the skip logic and select Skip Condition. This side panel now allows you to apply skip logic to the previous question in the assessment and check for specific responses, you can add as many conditions and questions as required.

To apply a skip, select the Domain you wish to choose the question from and then the specific question. Now the select answer will allow you to select any of the possible answers, this can be either one or all of the possible answers.

Select Add to add this skip condition to this question.

The Skip Condition is added and can be edited or deleted. Also, note that you can add additional conditions to this question as required.

Testing Skip Logic

To ensure skip logic is working as intended it is good practice to Preview the assessment and test it out yourself.

Navigate to the Preview of the Assessment in the Builder.

As you can see, the question that could be skipped based on its logic is visible by default:

If the condition to skip is met, in this case, a "Yes" response to question 3.4 then the question is gone and the number of questions is reduced in the assessment.

Skip Logic with And/Or Conditions

Using And Condition

Select the question you would like to add skip logic to and click Skip Condition. 

To apply a skip, select the Domain you wish to choose the question from and then the specific question. Now the select answer will allow you to select any of the possible answers.

Repeat the above step for the questions to which you would like to apply the skip condition. 

In the example below, we have chosen two questions in which the condition has to be met for question 1.4 to be skipped. The answer to questions 1.2 AND 1.3 must be a yes for the skip condition to function correctly. 

As seen in the image below 1.2 AND 1.3 have the response as Yes, thus question 1.4 is no longer present. 

Using Or Condition 

Select the question you would like to add skip logic to and click Skip Condition. 

To apply a skip, select the Domain you wish to choose the question from and then the specific question. Now the select answer will allow you to select any of the possible answers.

Repeat the above step for the questions to which you would like to apply the skip condition. 

In the example below, we have chosen two questions in which the condition has to be met for question 1.4 to be skipped. The answer to questions 1.2 OR 1.3 must be a yes for the skip condition to function correctly. 

Skip Logic for Child Questions 

Select the question containing the child question you would like to add skip logic to and click Skip Condition. 

Select the child question to apply a skip, select the Domain you wish to choose the question from, and then the specific question. Now the select answer will allow you to select any of the possible answers. 

In this example when the Yes is selected for question 1.1 the child question will be hidden. 

In this example when the No is selected for question 1.1 the child question will remain.
