Hi all~!

Is there a way to randomize the order of a set of questions
Say, I have 5 questions that I want to change the order every time the participants answer.
So, even when one participant visits the survey multiple times, he/she sees the order of 5 questions differently every time. 

-----------
I understand there is an action tag (@RANDOMORDER) to randomize choices (options), but my questions is about randomizing a set of questions.

Thank you for your kind help!!!!
Happy day!

Hi
Unfortunately, I don’t have the answer to your problem, but it’s a situation I’ve been through myself recently and… I just gave up. Maybe by pushing together we will convince someone else to come in with a solution!
The exact same issue was raised in a 2021 post, without any conclusive answer : https://groups.google.com/g/redcap_open/c/hIrcHvOLUeY/m/txfA7GVUBAAJ

Maybe this time will be the good one.
🤞

Hi Jean!!!
Thank you for your kind reply!

I found the solution! Here! 

There is an external module called matrix question randomization. 
Tufts university has a good slides on it.


I might as well post it on the forum so people can get help.
