About statistics

Statistics in Results shows a chart for every question of your survey, built from all responses collected so far. You see at a glance how participants answered. For a report with filters, or as a PDF or Excel file, use Export statistics.

The Statistics page

Click Results in the top bar of the editor and then Statistics in the left panel.

1. Statistics in the left panel.
2. % and #: show percentages or numbers of participants.
3. The question: its number, code, question type and text. The charts follow the order of your survey, grouped by question group.
4. The ... menu of the chart.
5. Switch between the views of the chart, for example bar chart, pie chart and table.
6. Export statistics: a statistics report with filters, as a web page, PDF or Excel file.

Point to a bar to see how many participants chose the answer and the percentage. The percentages are based on all responses, including incomplete ones. No answer counts the responses without an answer to the question.

Change a chart

1. Click ... at the top right of the chart (4).

2. Point to All chart options and choose Bar chart, Pie chart, Radar chart, Line chart, Polar area chart, Doughnut chart or Table.

To collapse a chart you do not need, choose Hide chart in the same menu. Show chart brings it back.

Create a statistics report

The statistics report filters your responses and creates tables and charts as a web page, a PDF or an Excel file.

1. On the Statistics page, click Export statistics (6).

2. Under General filters, set Include to All responses, Complete only or Incomplete only.

3. Choose the Output format: HTML, PDF or Excel. Turn on Show graphs to add charts.

4. Choose the questions: tick them under Response filters, or turn on View summary of all available fields to include all questions.

5. To analyze a part of your responses, select answers under a question, for example only the participants who chose Phone. Under Filter, Response ID and Submission date narrow the responses further.

6. Click View statistics at the top. HTML shows the report on the page. PDF and Excel create a file to download.

Tip: Do not filter on the question you want to summarize. Its summary would then only show the answers you selected.

Close takes you back to the Statistics page.

Why do the percentages not match my complete responses?

The charts count all responses, including incomplete ones. For statistics of complete responses only, create a statistics report with Include set to Complete only.

Can participants see the statistics?

Only if you publish them. In the editor, open Presentation in the left toolbar and turn on Public statistics. Show graphs in public statistics adds charts. Then turn on Show in public statistics for each question you want to show, under Statistics in the Advanced tab of the question settings. It is off by default. See Theme options and presentation settings.
