3 Scoring

Hi there, welcome back. We’re talking about scoring and results. But what do we mean by scoring in a personality quiz? Because there aren’t right or wrong answers. Instead, we have scores which map an answer to a specific personality. And for this we need scoring. It tells Riddle how to match your audience’s answers to the best fitting result, question by question. Let’s look at that. Our first question is here and under the question you have the answer options and then here we need to click on edit scoring. So let’s use this question as an example. These different answer options can all now be given points that map to the different personalities that you see along the top. So for example comfort and luxury I gave that 10 points for a comfort car.

Five points for performance, but I left eco-friendly and practical blank because they don’t really correlate for me. Speed and performance. Here you can see the scoring they set up here with 10 points for performance and leaving the others blank. Fuel efficiency and practicality. Okay, for me that correlated strongly to eco-friendly and a little bit to practical. And then safety and reliability. I felt like there was a strong correlation to a practical car and a little bit to comfort and eco-friendliness, so at the end here we then have a score of 15 for each; you can keep them all the same or try and make them add up to being the same or around the same score, that’s what we would highly recommend, so that it evens things out and so that you don’t have one personality that’s much more likely to be given than another one.

So it’s good to balance that out within a question, but also across the questions as well. So just keep an eye on that as you’re going through your scoring, that you don’t have a huge score for one question and a very, very low score for another question. Unless that’s intentional, because sometimes you might have a question that bears a lot of weight. has really high correlation to a specific personality, whereas another question might not be so important for that personality, if at all. And if something isn’t relevant at all, like we did here, you can keep it zero or even everything zero if the question is completely irrelevant to the personality, but not irrelevant to you, of course, or to your audience. Okay, so once you’ve done it for one question, click on the cross.

And you can do the same for all the other questions. So again, scroll down, click on edit scoring, and then you can set up your points for every single question. Here you can see I used either zero or a positive number. You can also go into the minuses. So, for example, if in your car range that you offer, you don’t have a high performing car that is cheap then perhaps you want to make the points negative here if someone selected that for example so it’s something you can play around with enjoy the maths of that but the points being added up and the correlation to the winning result is something that just happens in the background you don’t have to set that up so whatever the highest score was amongst all these personalities that will come up as a result in this case as a perfect car for your audience.

And you can either have that result as a maximum number of points across all the different, so these four personalities, or you can have the result and the score or the percentage as a maximum for that personality in its own right. I’ll just show you where you can change that. You need to go into settings. scroll down, click on results and here for how the personality result is calculated you can select between the points achieved across all personalities so in comparison to each other or as a maximum number of points for that personality in its own right. So that’s scoring for personality quiz. Have a play around with that, and I’ll see you in the next clip.
