TubePulse™ audio rating

TubePulse™ audio rating is an interactive question which allows your survey respondents to provide continuous feedback while listening to a audio piece, by dragging a slider along with a rating scale (e.g. bad, good, excellent).

The respondents can react to the audio at any point while it is playing, by moving a slider. Each interaction with the slider is recorded along with time stamp for reports. You can also allow respondents to add comments by using cue-point as the data collection method.

To add TubePulse™ question:

• Go to: Login » Survey (select a survey) » Edit » Workspace.
• Click on add question button.

• Under advanced question types » image / multimedia, click on TubePulse™.

• TubePulse™ question will appear in the survey edit page. By default, the media type is video. You need to click on audio under settings.
• Under settings, you can set the data collection method as per your need. You can set the data collection method as slider to collect only ratings from the respondent. You can also set the data collection method as cue-point if you want the respondents to add comments along with their rating.
• To add audio, go to audio settings and click on upload /select audio to select audio file from media library.
• Validation: By default, validation option is turned off. Respondents can skip and move ahead in the survey without answering the question. You can enable validation if you don't want to allow respondents to skip this question. By enabling validation option you can see a drop-down with options - force response and request response.

  Force response option makes a question mandatory/required, as shown in the above image. The respondents cannot finish survey without answering a mandatory question.

  Time in seconds: This validation ensures a specific duration (in seconds) for which the audio will be played mandatorily while respondent is taking the survey. You can specify the duration in seconds. For e.g. If you add duration 20 seconds, the respondent will be forced to listen to the audio for 20 seconds and once the audio crosses the limit mark of 20 seconds, the respondent will see the "next" button to move ahead in the survey. The "next" button will be hidden for the time duration set.

  When you select request response, the respondent gets a pop-up in case a question is not answered, requesting to answer the question or continue survey without answering.

When the TubePulse™ question appears while taking survey, the respondents need to play the audio. As the audio starts playing they have to move the slider to rate the audio at any point.

If you have enabled debug mode, the respondents will see the time stamp (shown in the red box) along with the corresponding rating given by them.
