Logician® Questionnaire Programming
Logician® is Decision Analyst's proprietary questionnaire programming
software, designed and coded by Decision Analyst's programmers. It features:
- Algebraic Logic
- Comprehensive Boolean Skip and Branching Logic
- Hidden Skip Logic. Respondents never see any evidence of skips (i.e.,
the questions the respondent sees always flow in numerical sequence).
- Variable Piping. Piping of variables from the sample
into the questionnaire and from question to question are possible.
- Random or Systematic Rotation. This can apply to questions, blocks of
questions, and answer choices from respondent to respondent.
- Control of the Questionnaire Flow. The respondents can be blocked from
backing up or can be allowed to stop midquestionnaire and come back later to
finish.
- Error Trapping. If the respondent fails to answer a
question, or answers it with an incorrect type of response, an immediate error
message appears.
- Forced Answering. Respondents cannot skip over
questions as they do in mail surveys. The program will not let them continue if
they fail to answer a question.
- Sounds and Pictures. Sounds and visuals can be
integrated into the questionnaire.
- Format Flexibility. Different screen layouts,
background colors, font types, colors, and sizes are options.
- Single-Response and Multiple-Response Questions. Multiple-response
questions can even accept answers up to a limit (i.e., up to three answers or
up to four answers, etc.).
- Open-Ended Questions. Responses to open-ended
questions can be captured verbatim. Unaided questions are always asked as
open-ended questions.
- Encryption. Our Internet server is encrypted with
SSL (Secure Socket Layering) for total security.
Logician® Online Reporting System
Decision Analyst’s Logician® Online Reporting Platform
includes an integrated suite of applications designed to manage data and
customize reports. Our online reporting capabilities include:
- Web Publishing. A static electronic report posted
on a secure webpage.
- Report Distribution. Simple data query (e.g. sales
per quarter per region) which is passed by a user through the web and is posted
for viewing.
- Dynamic Applications. System that provides data-driven
decision support including Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) and advanced
analytical capabilities.
Icion™ Sampling
Icion™ is our proprietary multivariate sampling and panel management
software system. Icion™ permits balanced, representative samples to be
drawn from Decision Analyst's Internet panels, using various combinations of
variables (geography, age, sex, income, ethnicity, etc.).
A second function of Icion™ is to track respondent participation in studies
and track response to each study. This careful tracking of respondent participation
and response is crucial to proper management of the panel and to the correct
execution of each study.
