The GroupSolver experience can be broken into three sections, each of which require a basic understanding before beginning your process of launching a survey. It is beneficial to have an understanding of the front-end, the back-end, and how to code your study before getting started.
Note: Please refer to our more in-depth articles within the Knowledge Base for a broader explanation on these areas of the platform. These introductory articles serve as a quick tutorial on how to navigate the GroupSolver dashboard successfully. Or, if you have more specific questions, you may contact your GroupSolver representative or submit a request to [email protected]
GroupSolver Front-End:
A GroupSolver study's look and feel is unique in that it mimics the likeness of a text message conversation. We've found that this is a comfortable and familiar format for most individuals and is ultimately a more interactive experience for respondents.
Within your study, you have the option to include a variety of closed-ended (choice, matrix, allocation, ranking) question types for your respondents to interact with (you may also show videos and images within both open-ended and closed-ended questions).
Here is an example of an open-ended question with a visual from the respondent perspective.
Here is an example of an allocation question from the respondent perspective.
Specifically, the GroupSolver AI Open-End™ asks respondents to provide their unaided answer to a question.
If their answer is similar enough to a separate answer that another respondent submitted, they will be automatically coded together. In some instances, answers may be very similar but still require respondent interaction. In this case, they will be asked if someone else's answer may replace their own.
Respondents will then be required to evaluate a minimum of 8 other, unaided responses that were given to the same question. Here, we are gathering support statistics for individual statements so you can see what your crowd is likely to agree and disagree with. You will see that after the minimum amount of evaluations is reached, the bottom button changes to the option to "continue."
