    Dear Kent! I can't tell you how delighted I have been today after looking at this video 'entering questionnaire onto a spreadsheet'! I arrived for my regular volunteer session today and the manager asked me if I would be able to put data from a questionnaire onto a spreadsheet - I said 'I'm not sure - I've not done it before but I'll give it a go - I'll look on youtube!'. I found this video; which has been quite perfect! very clear, very well paced and exactly what I needed to know to do the task! It's has given such a sense of achievement and satisfaction at the end of my session to have created the spreadsheet and entered the first of many batches of questionnaires. The ability of the organisation to be able to use the results of this survey are critical in achieving an important objective next year. I just wanted to say 'thank you!'.

    Could you please explain the q2 a, b and c and how you coded them? I have a question in which respondents may choose more than one answer and I do not know how to deal with that part. There are 8 options concerning that question. So, question 3..q3a,b..h but the problem I encountered is how can I code them as you did?

    • @kentlofgren
      @kentlofgren  2 місяці тому

      Question 2 is special, as you know, because the participants may check, one, two or more options at the same time. When coding, split the question into parts (as many parts as there are options), i.e., create one column for each. Let's say you ask about their favorite summer activity and provide three options: swimming, walking and biking. We need three columns in Excel. For each row (remember, one row = one participant), use one digit to indicate that the participant has checked this option. In the video, I use "1". And leave it blank (or use another digit -- in the video I use "2") to indicate that the participant has not. In summary, create columns in Excel, and for each of the columns, enter something :-)

    • @kentlofgren
      @kentlofgren  5 років тому +3

      Oh, I just enter the number 2 for "no checkmark" in question 2 for no particular reason. Question 2 (at 1:24 in the video) is special because the respondent could select two or more boxes. Therefore we must treat each box as a separate variable (each with its own column in Excel), as you know. In this video, I decided to code "Yes" with the digit 1 and "No" with 2. However, I could have coded "Yes" with 2, and "No" with 1. It does not matter if you ask me ;-)

    • @kentlofgren
      @kentlofgren  7 років тому +2

      Question 5 is an open-ended question and the respondents write their answers in plain language. These written replies are written into column q5a. As you know, these type of data requires some interpretation from the researcher (me). I code the replies into a couple of cathegories (or themes), and I give each of these chategories a numerical value (1, 2, 3 and so on). I write these numbers into column q5b.

    @ChessInstructorSF 5 років тому +4

    Hum! I have many questions: 1) Why not code the papers with ID starting at 2 to match row to paper? 2) Why not use a 0 for a non-answer? I think this might make it easier to find out what questions were missed/unanswered? 3) Do I need a cat to make this work properly :-) Why did you not remove the cat so that he/she will not distract from the task at hand? 4) What if you have 20,000 paper surveys? You for got to mention that this process is good for small surveys and not humongous ones. 5) Where is the explanation of what you do with the verbatim question? Why did you end the video without explaining that? You know, you could have paused the recording of the video, finished this small survey, and then started recording with the data all entered. Don’t you think this would have been a better approach? Thanks for making this, I hope you accept this as constructive criticism.
