Qualtrics - Tips for Results Reports, Filter Reports and Results Breakout Reports

Results vs Reports

Results have charts and statistics for every question automatically, whereas reports require you to construct a widgets for each question in order to access the charts and statistics, unless you base your report on the results page. Future versions of Qualtrics will no longer include the results tab. Locate the results tab at the top of your survey while it is open. When you copy a survey, the results reports will copy, but the reports will not.

Creating result reports that use less paper and are simpler to read

Results per page setting

You can conserve paper by setting the text responds to 100 when you have an open-ended question. The default setting is 5 per page.

1. Results
2. Scroll to the text question (do not click on the question on the left side, as this will remove the question from the result report).
3. Click in the center, where the text responses are, and then scroll to the right to get Results per page.
4. Drag the dot all the way to the right.

Charts of the Matrix or Side by Side question type can be set up to make them easier to read.

2. Make sure the following are checked Stacked Bars and Show Bar Labels
