NumericalResponse

Defined in: parser/types.ts:539

The NumericalResponse interface is used to define the properties of a numerical response. NumericalResponses render as a text input that only accepts numbers, and can optionally have a min and max value, or a placeholder.

{
"id": "q-numerical",
"prompt": "Numerical example",
"location": "aboveStimulus",
"type": "numerical",
"default": 25,
"placeholder": "Enter your age, range from 0 - 120",
"max": 120,
"min": 0

Properties​

PropertyTypeDescriptionInherited fromDefined in
default?numberThe default value of the response. Specify a numeric value such as 25 or 3.14.-parser/types.ts:544
delay?numberDelay in milliseconds before an element activates. Must be non-negative; defaults to 0 meaning the element is always active. Minimum 0BaseResponse.delayparser/types.ts:520
excludeFromRandomization?booleanExclude response from randomization. If present, will override the responseOrder randomization setting in the components. Defaults to false.BaseResponse.excludeFromRandomizationparser/types.ts:516
hidden?booleanControls whether the response is hidden.BaseResponse.hiddenparser/types.ts:506
idstringThe id of the response. This is used to identify the response in the data file.BaseResponse.idparser/types.ts:486
infoText?stringThe description that is displayed when the participant hovers over the response. This does not accept markdown.BaseResponse.infoTextparser/types.ts:494
location?ConfigResponseBlockLocationControls the response location. These might be the same for all responses, or differ across responses. Defaults to belowStimulusBaseResponse.locationparser/types.ts:498
max?GlobalStoreNumberThe maximum value that is accepted in the input.-parser/types.ts:548
min?GlobalStoreNumberThe minimum value that is accepted in the input.-parser/types.ts:546
onSubmit?GlobalStoreAction[]Apply these actions to the final submitted answer, in declared order.BaseResponse.onSubmitparser/types.ts:484
paramCapture?stringUse to capture querystring parameters in answers such as participant_name. See the examples for how this is used, but prefer uiConfig.urlParticipantIdParam if you are capturing a participant ID.BaseResponse.paramCaptureparser/types.ts:504
path?stringPath under src/public/ to response code. Custom responses require a default React component. Any response code module may export validate(value, values, response) to return an error message, a boolean validity result, or null for valid input. It may separately export score(value, values, response, expected?) to return a boolean or a score from 0 to 1; null uses ordinary correct-answer matching. expected is the configured correct answer when correctness is checked.BaseResponse.pathparser/types.ts:488
placeholder?stringThe placeholder text displayed in the input.-parser/types.ts:542
promptstringThe prompt that is displayed to the participant. You can use markdown here to render images, links, etc.BaseResponse.promptparser/types.ts:490
required?booleanControls whether the response is required to be answered. Defaults to true.BaseResponse.requiredparser/types.ts:496
requiredLabel?stringYou can provide a required label, which makes it so a participant has to answer with a response that matches label.BaseResponse.requiredLabelparser/types.ts:502
requiredValue?unknownYou can provide a required value, which makes it so a participant has to answer with that value.BaseResponse.requiredValueparser/types.ts:500
secondaryText?stringThe secondary text that is displayed to the participant under the prompt. This does not accept markdown.BaseResponse.secondaryTextparser/types.ts:492
strictMax?GlobalStoreNumberOnly values below this maximum value are accepted in the input.-parser/types.ts:552
strictMin?GlobalStoreNumberOnly values above this minimum value are accepted in the input.-parser/types.ts:550
style?StylesYou can set styles here, using React CSSProperties, for example: {"width": 100} or {"width": "50%"}BaseResponse.styleparser/types.ts:514
stylesheetPath?stringThe path to the external stylesheet file.BaseResponse.stylesheetPathparser/types.ts:512
type"numerical"--parser/types.ts:540
visibleIf?ResponseVisibilityConditionShow this response only when another response in this component satisfies the condition.BaseResponse.visibleIfparser/types.ts:518
withDivider?booleanRenders the response with a trailing divider. If present, will override the divider setting in the components or uiConfig.BaseResponse.withDividerparser/types.ts:508
withDontKnow?booleanRenders the response with an option for "I don't know". This counts as a completed answer for the validation.BaseResponse.withDontKnowparser/types.ts:510
