Calculation of questionnaire scores

Inrecruiting provides the possibility to submit questionnaires to candidates.

It is possible to create questionnaires with matrix, single-answer and multiple-answer questions. 

For each type of question, the score achieved is calculated according to different methods: here are some examples.

COUNTING RESULTS MATRIX QUESTIONS 

Calculation example: 

Given the following weights 

Give the following answers: 

The sum of the products of the value corresponding to the row and column of the answers will be calculated. 

Thus: 

A1+B2+C3 -> (0x100)+(50X100)+(100x100)= 0+5000+10000=15000 

Now we need to add up the product of all the possible answers in the matrix, so: 

A1+A2+A3+B1+B2+B3+C1+C2+C3 -> (0X100)+(50X100)+(100X100)+ (0X100)+(50X100)+(100X100)+ 

(0X100)+(50X100)+(100X100)= 45000 

Now simply divide the "sum of answers" by the "total sum of weights" 15000/45000= 0.3333 

In the case of a questionnaire with only one question, we will convert on a percentage basis, so 0.333 -> 33.33%. 

COUNTING RESULTS SINGLE SELECTION QUESTION 

The score is awarded according to the set weight divided by the maximum weight. 

Calculation example. 

Given the following weights 

A: 0 

B: 50 

C :100 

Considering that the candidate answered B, divide the answer weight by the sum of the answer weights. 

Thus: 

B/(A+B+C) -> 50/(0+50+100) = 50/150= 0.3333 

In the case of a questionnaire with only one question, we will convert on a percentage basis, so 0.333 -> 33.33%. 

COUNTING RESULTS OF MULTIPLE SELECTION QUESTION 

The system performs a calculation using a weighted average 

Calculation example: 

Given the following weights 

A: 0 

B: 50 

C:100 

Given the following answers: 

B and C 

(B+C)/(A+B+C) -> (50+100)/(0+50+100) = 150/150= 1 

In the case of a questionnaire with only one question, we will convert on a percentage basis, so 1 -> 100%. 

If the questionnaire consists of one page with several questions of different types, the calculation of the result will be as follows:

CALCULATION OF THE PAGE VALUE 

A weighted average is used to count the page result. 

Given the following weights to the questions on the page:

Question 1: 20 

Question 2: 30 

Assuming the candidate scored the following marks in the various questions: 

Result question 1: 0.33 

Result question 2: 0.66 

For each question add the marks obtained multiplied by the weight of the question, dividing the result by the total sum of the weights. 

Thus: 

(Result question 1 X Weight question 1)+(Result question 2 X Weight question 2)/(Weight question 1+ Weight question 2) 

 (0.33 X 20)+(0.66 X 30)/20+30=0.53333333 

In the case of a questionnaire with only one page, we will convert on a percentage basis, so 0.53333 -> 53.33%. 

Finally, it is possible to create a questionnaire with several pages to which different weights can be assigned. In this case, the system will follow the following calculation method:

CALCULATION OF THE VALUE OF A MULTI-PAGE QUESTIONNAIRE 

A weighted average is used to count the result of the questionnaire. 

Give the following weights to the pages in the questionnaire:

Page 1: 20 

Page 2: 30 

Given the following scores for the various questions: 

Page 1: 0.33 

Page 2: 0.66 

For each page, add the marks obtained multiplied by the weight of the page, dividing the result by the total sum of the weights. 

Thus: 

(Result page 1 X Weight page 1)+(Result page 2 X Weight page 2)/(Weight page 1+ Weight page 2) 

(0.33 X 20)+(0.66 X 30)/20+30=0.53333333 

We will now convert on a percentage basis, so 0.533333 > 53.33%.
