Before you can configure custom scoring in Qnaires, you must first add score modifiers to the answer options (choice options) that patients select when completing Qnaires. The score modifier values are used in the custom score formula you configure for your Qnaire. See Configuring custom scores in Qnaires.
Here is an example.
Question: How often have you had trouble relaxing?
Option | Modifier | Score |
Not at all | 0 | 0 |
Several days | 1 | 1 |
Over half the days | 2 | 2 |
You can use scoring (score modifiers) in the following question types: Multi-select, Radio, Select Box, Button, Slider, Numerical and Star.
