Questions & Idea Split Reporting (Video)


Reviewing open-ended results

Here is a video that gives you a deep-dive into reviewing open-ended questions results:

Here's a text run-through of all you need to know:

In your study, you captured consumers' verbatim comments. So now what?

To help guide your analysis, Upsiide automatically applies Natural Language Processing (NLP) to each open-end question. This will allow you to quickly understand what patterns may be happening in your verbatim data.

*NLP is available in English, Spanish and Japanese only.

Let's look at the information you can find within the sentiment analysis section of the open-end results.

Responses

Provides a percentage of the comments that are positive, neutral or negative. The score of the sentiment ranges between -1.0 (negative) and 1.0 (positive) and corresponds to the overall emotional learning of the text.

From the Super Bowl 55 Ad Study, 61% of respondents had a positive sentiment about ads during Super Bowl LV.

Keywords

Gives insight into the words and phrases mentioned most often by sentiment intensity.

  • Green and red bars give you a visual representation of how positive or negative the word is.

  • Sort by the number of mentions or sentiment score by clicking the sort by drop-down menu.

  • The number of people who mentioned the keyword can be found by clicking on the word in the grid. On the right-hand side, above the selected word, you will see a number of people and mentions. However, this does not mean this is the exact number of mentions in your data.*

  • Provides verbatim based on the keywords by positive, neutral and negative scores.

*The count is based on keywords that are determined to have a sentiment. There are cases in that sentiment may not be captured because of the brevity of the verbatim, or words and phrases cannot be coded as a sentiment.

Word Clouds

The word cloud visualizes word frequency and sentiment from your open-end. The larger the word, the more frequently it was mentioned compared to other words.

Reviewing Scale question results

Scale Questions are a great way to find out what the average response is to your question - you can choose either a default linear Scale or create a custom Scale (read more here for how to do that)

Reviewing the Scale question is really simple, you have:

  1. Scale - this shows you the scale used in creating the question

  2. Scale Average - this is the average Scale across all respondents who answered the question


Reviewing Heatmap results

Heatmap results are split into two main sections:

  • A. The Heatmap - each dot shows where someone clicked, if you select the show/hide dots button (eye) you can remove the dots and see it as only a heatmap, the darker the colour, the more click in a particular area

  • B. Clicks & Comments - this section shows you the comment left by respondents when they clicked


Reviewing Rank question results

Rank questions are useful for finding out the order of preference for a set of options. Our Rank question report shows you:

  1. The answer options - this is what your respondents had to choose from

  2. Percentage of respondents - This is the percentage of your respondents who chose each ranking e.g. below 33% chose Hamburgers as their #1 rank

  3. Average Rank - the average for each answer option across all respondents

  4. Show/hide options - this gives you the ability to show only the options you want, a good example of this would be only wanting to show the top 3 or 5 ranked answers in a long list


Sending test links to team members for feedback

Share the study you created with your team members to get feedback on your questions by:

  • When in Create study mode, navigate to the top menu bar and select Preview mode (Play icon).

  • Locate the Share icon in the right corner of the top menu bar.

  • Click the Copy Link to send the test link to your teammate. You will see multiple test links if you have more than one language.
