Termination tags and widgets

  • Updated

IntelliSurvey's survey programming language (SPL) includes several methods to insert termination points (or "term points") to screen out unwanted respondents. Respondents that meet termination criteria are terminated immediately, unless otherwise specified using term after or defer term. 

The following table includes the tags, widgets, and associated decorators (if any) that can be used to define terminations.

Tag/widget name As decorator Description
defer term N/A Delays termination until a specified point in the survey; for use with the app config widget. Applies to all terminations in the survey, unlike term after.
qualify if qualify: y Allows respondents to continue if they meet the specified condition. When used as a decorator, it indicates which option(s) must be selected to avoid termination. 
set term N/A

Standalone widget; creates a termination point that is independent of any questions or tables. 

set term is useful for terminating respondents on a page where there are no widgets to which the term if tag can be added, or if the termination logic is based on multiple questions.
term after term after New for r9.4; delays a termination until a specified point in the survey. Applies to a specific term point only, unlike defer term.
term if term: y Terminates respondents if they meet the specified condition. When used as a decorator, it indicates which option(s) will terminate respondents if selected.
term text text

Defines text that is displayed in the reports which describes the reason for termination.

When used with qualify if, the text still applies to the options that would lead to a termination.
