1) When you create a rank choices question, click on Settings, then tick the checkbox Randomize choice order for participants
2) Do not forget to Save these settings
3. Display the results
The application calculate the results on a point system basis according to where the participants has placed each proposal. The higher the proposition is ranked, the more points it will receive.
E.g. for 3 different answer items: 1st place = 3 points, 2nd place = 2 points, 3rd place = 1 point.
Of course, this operation is automatic and it is adjusted to the number of proposals available to the participant.
Both on the Projection Mode and on the participants interface, results are reordered to fit the overall score of all proposals (the first at the top and last at the bottom).
