Test Settings > New Question

Likert questions allow you to design a question based on a scale of answers. For example, "I think Acme laundry detergent is a good brand." The answers would be in the form "Strongly Disagree", "Disagree", "Neither agree nor disagree", "Agree", "Strongly agree". Each answer box is assigned a number value.

Test Generator stores the data and generates Test or Survey reports. At present, these reports do not include any in-depth analysis of the results; instead, we give you the option of exporting the data for processing and analysis using various statistical tools.

TG LAN or TG Web customers can generate their own reports using Crystal Reports or some other reports generation tool. If you require a particular report type, please contact us.
