Demographic Question
The demographic questions are supposed to collect the background information of raters. For example, raters' age, gender, experience with programming languages, etc. Raters must answer all required demographic questions of a dataset if they would like to take that survey.
A set of demographic questions can be grouped into a demographic question group so that it can be assigned to one or more datasets. Administrators can create, update, delete these groups.
By hitting the create / edit a demographic question group, a pop-up window will be opened and display the demographic question group form. Administrators will need to fill the title and the description. The priority of a group will determine whether questions of this group will be displayed before questions of other groups. Administrators can also reorder the questions assigned to a group.
To assign a group to a dataset, administrators need to simply edit that dataset and select that group in the demographic question groups selector.
Afterwards, every time raters access this dataset, they will be asked to answer all required questions of each group one-by-one.
Administrators can manage the list of demographic questions. By clicking on create or edit a demographic question, a pop-up window will be opened to edit the form. The form to edit a demographic question is similar to snippet questions but it has a selector to assign a question to a demographic question group.
Additionally, there are more types of demographic questions than snippet questions. Beside INPUT, SINGLE_CHOICE, MULTIPLE_CHOICE, and RATING, there are also TEXT_ONLY and SNIPPET_PREVIEW. The TEXT_ONLY demographic question simply shows a piece of text in the registration page. Normally, this kind of question is supposed to show a guideline or inform some thing. The SNIPPET_PREVIEW question is aimed to introduce raters about the rating editor before they actually access the rating page.
The SNIPPET_PREVIEW question is created by selecting an existed snippet of a dataset and clone its content to make a demographic question. If the selected snippet has questions, they will also be cloned and assigned to that SNIPPET_PREVIEW question.
