How Can I Randomize The Order Of Options In Multiple Choice Questions?

Here is how you can present to visitors a randomized order of options in multiple-choice questions, e.g., for reducing order biases in surveys.

Here’s a quick guide on how to show the answers to a question in a random order each time the question is loaded.

This is useful when you are gathering information and you want to remove the primacy bias – the tendency for respondents to pick one of the first options presented to them. Showing the options in a different order every time will increase the trust in the result of the survey.

Open the “Forms” page using the sidebar menu.

Open the form you want to edit.

Add a multi-select question, enable the “Random Choice Order” toggle and save the changes.
