Question Types

Logbook supports three types of questions to cover most survey needs.

#Single Choice

Participants select exactly one option from a list.

#Best For

  • Yes/No questions
  • Rating scales
  • Mutually exclusive options
  • Preference selection
Example
What is your preferred programming language?
  • JavaScript
  • Python
  • Rust
  • Go

#Multiple Choice

Participants can select any number of options (zero or more).

#Best For

  • "Select all that apply" questions
  • Feature preferences
  • Multiple interests or skills
  • Non-exclusive options
Example
Which platforms do you use? (Select all that apply)
  • iOS
  • Android
  • Web
  • Desktop

#Text Input

Participants type a free-form text response.

#Best For

  • Open-ended feedback
  • Suggestions and ideas
  • Detailed explanations
  • Contact information
Text answers can be up to 500 characters long.
Example
What features would you like to see added? [Text input field]

#"Other" Option

For single choice and multiple choice questions, you can enable an "Other" option that allows participants to enter a custom response.

#How It Works

  1. 1Enable "Other": When creating a question, toggle the "Allow Other option" switch
  2. 2Participant view: An "Other" radio/checkbox appears at the end of options with a text field
  3. 3Custom input: Participants can select "Other" and type their own response (up to 200 characters)
  4. 4Results display: "Other" responses are shown as a separate category with individual text entries listed below

#Best For

  • When you can't anticipate all possible answers
  • Capturing edge cases and unique responses
  • Getting specific feedback alongside structured options
  • Surveys where flexibility is important
Example
What is your favorite fruit?
  • Apple
  • Banana
  • Orange
  • Other: [text field]
A participant might select "Other" and type "Mango" — this response will be counted in the "Other" category and the text "Mango" will appear in the results.

#Results View

In campaign results:

  • Vote count: Shows how many selected "Other"
  • Response list: Lists the individual "Other" text responses
  • Your response: If you selected "Other", your entry is highlighted with a cyan background

#Question Options

#Required vs Optional

  • Required: Participants must answer to submit the form
  • Optional: Participants can skip this question

#Tips for Good Questions

  1. 1Be specific: "How satisfied are you with the checkout process?" is better than "Are you satisfied?"
  1. 2Avoid leading questions: Don't bias responses with loaded language
  1. 3Keep it simple: One concept per question
  1. 4Provide balanced options: Include the full range of possible responses
  1. 5Consider order: Put most common options first, or randomize to avoid bias
