Question type overview

A new question will be multi-coded and you will need to change the type if this is not what you need, see Entry details window.

The Companion has the following types of questions:

Single-coded

Multi-coded (including Open-ended)

Integer

Float

Character

Date

Time

Verbatim text.

There is another answer type, normally used for CATI, CAPI, and email questionnaires:

None (text for interviewer)

The serial number is like an integer question, although it is set in project global settings and must not appear in the list of entries.
