Personality Inventory

Hi  James,

I recently played around with this idea (I love me some psychological inventories!).  It can be accomplished several ways, but one method is to combine variables and pick many questions.  Here's a screenr I shot to explain:

Here's a link to the tutorials on building a counter with variables:

I hope this helps!

PS. I've attached the .story file for your review!

Oh!  And welcome to the Heroes Community James!  Excited to have you here.

Never hesitate to ask any questions that you have.  You'll find that there are so many

awesome users willing to help!

Hi there, would this work with a Pick One format? The personality assessment I'm looking at will have 4 possible outcomes, however, the assessment tool questions only offer two choices per question. Is this possible?

Erin,

A pick one format could work in a similar manner where you are incrementing a variable based upon what the user chooses.  

Can you explain a little about "the assessment tool questions only offer two choices per question".  Are you referring to the built-in Storyline question types?  Because those would offer more than just two choices.

Thanks!

Mike

Hi James, I'm trying to do almost the exact same thing - although the assessment is set up with two different choices per question. I set it up as a pick one, following all the variables from your example. For some reason, I cannot get my results to appear. I've attached my example. If you're able to take a look and provide feedback, that would be great! (It's not "pretty" - I'm just going for functionality).

Hi Erin,

I took a look at your story and this looks like a simple fix. In the trigger panel for each choice slide, move the Submit button down so it's the last trigger in the panel. The problem is that the choice is being submitted before the count triggers have a chance to work.

I was so close! Thank you for taking a look Rebecca. I'm excited to finally start learning variables. Appreciate the help!

Glad you got that working Erin! Thanks for the update. Thank you Becky for the words of wisdom. Just let us know if you need anything further.

Awesome, Erin! You go with those variables!

Is there anyway to do something like this in Quizmaker?

Hi Sara,

Quizmaker doesn't have the same set up in terms of tracking variables like Storyline, but you may also want to look in the Quizmaker forums to see if there are examples there you could modify for what you'd like.
