getStatInSurvey

Show statistics from previous answers in survey question text, help and answers.

Documentation

You can show statistics from these question types:

• short text
• single choice (dropdown, radio, 5 point, Gender …)
• numeric
• equation

You use the code of question (Qcode), the statistic you want and, optionally, the answer code surrounded by brackets ([Qcode.type.answer]).

• To show the average of a question :
  • [Qcode.mean] gives the average
  • [Qcode.mean0] gives the average as an integer
  • [Qcode.mean2] gives the average rounded to 2 decimals
  • [Qcode.moyenne] gives the average
  • [Qcode.moy] gives the average as an integer
  • [Qcode.moy2] gives the average rounded to 2 decimals
• To show the percentage :
  • [Qcode.percent] : shows the percentage with the same answer as the respondent, between 0 and 100 with all decimals
  • [Qcode.pourcent] : shows the percentage with the same answer as the respondent, between 0 and 100 with all decimals
  • [Qcode.pc] : shows the percentage with the same answer as the respondent, but between 0 and 100 without decimals
  • [Qcode.percent.A1] : shows percentage with the answer A1
  • [Qcode.pourcent.A1] : shows percentage with the answer A1
• To show the number of answers
  • [Qcode.nb] : shows the total number of answers
  • [Qcode.nbnum] : shows the total numeric number of answers
  • [Qcode.nb.A1] : shows the number of answer A1 to question Qcode
• To show the answer code with the least filled responses
  • [Qcode.leastfilled] : shows the answer code that has the least filled responses (see docs/limesurvey_getstatinsurvey_leastfilled_example.lsa for example usage)

You can use these variables in a javascript workaround, or in setting a default answer to a question.

Usage in Expression Manager

To use this number in Expression manager : you must use quotes : for example {if(('[Qcode.nb.A1]'-100)>0,"There are "+('[Qcode.nb.A1]'-100)+" before this answer is quota out","This answer is quota out")} .

Specific restrictions

• You can not use this system in expression manager for the answer part (answers or subquestion) in LimeSurvey 3 and up;

• Nothings is shown when the survey is not activated.
