Calculation examples

These synthetic examples teach configuration. They are not validated clinical scoring rules.

Requires: Write access to the questionnaire and synthetic answers with known values.

Mean of three numeric answers

For Daily check-in, select the three numeric question references in an AVERAGE operator. Leave Per item off.

Input: 2, 4, 6. Output: 4.

Only select the intended questions. Missing numeric values are omitted rather than imputed; the mean may therefore use fewer answers than expected.

Reverse one 0–10 answer, then total

Assume the first question must be reversed and the second is scored directly.

1. Add SUBTRACT, select only the first numeric question, enable Per item, and set Value to 10.
2. Leave Create unique key off so the selected question value is replaced within this pipeline.
3. Add ADD, leave Per item off, and select the first and second question references explicitly.

Inputs: first 2, second 4. Reversed first: 10 − 2 = 8. Total: 8 + 4 = 12.

This reverses a numeric scale. There is no general lookup-table recoding operator in the current operator list.

Flag a synthetic threshold

Create a total pipeline that adds the intended questions. In a later pipeline, select total under Other calculations and apply GREATER_THAN_OR_EQUAL with Value 12.

Input total 12 → result 1; input total 11 → result 0. The comparison tests the first numeric value, not every item of a list.

Count unique text items

Use DISTINCT with Per item off and explicitly select the intended Text or Answer items inputs. Then apply COUNT to the generated DISTINCT result.

Input: ["walk", "rest", "walk"]. Distinct list: ["walk", "rest"]. Count: 2.
