Does redcap support cascading choice list?

[lakshmikanth]

I have a scenario where I have to include two choice lists of states and districts. District choice list values filtered/populated based on state list selected value.

Is this possible in redcap?

Hi Lakshmi,

I'm not sure this is what you need, but ...

I did a Congenital Abnormality droplist with 12 options.

Each option needed a different sublist to appear underneath when it was selected.

So I first I created the Congenital Abnormality droplist - [neono_dgn_cnab2_list1] - with 12 options.

Then underneath that, I had 12 other droplists, each corresponding to one of the 12 options in the Congenital Abnormality droplist.

The 12 droplists had branching logic like this:

   1^st droplist: [neono_dgn_cnab2_list1]=1

   2^nd droplist: [neono_dgn_cnab2_list1]=2

   3^rd droplist: [neono_dgn_cnab2_list1]=3

   4^th droplist:[neono_dgn_cnab2_list1]=4

   5^th droplist:[neono_dgn_cnab2_list1]=5

   .

   .

   .

   12th droplist: [neono_dgn_cnab2_list1]=12

So to begin with, none of the 12 was visible, then when someone selected a value from the Congenital Abnormality droplist, one of the 12 droplists became visible, and they could select a value from that sub list.

I hope this helps.

David.

Dear David,

                   Thank you so much for your support and patience to explain a work around for cascading choice implementation in redcap.

Unfortunately the above method is not feasible for my scenario as we need to create a separate field column for each sub choice for eg: 28 choices for indian states.

XLSForm supports cascading choice fields. 

Thanking You
