Changing the answer to a previous question
If the participant changes his or her mind about the answer to a previous question, first display the question using one of the following methods:
▪For interviews that require the keyboard only. Press the PAGE UP key until the question is displayed.
▪For interviews that use the mouse. Click the Previous button until the question is displayed.
Then change the answer as appropriate. If the question requires you to record the participant’s answer (see
Recording the participant’s answer), your new recording will overwrite the previous one that was made for this question.
Changing an answer might mean that some of the questions you have already answered become invalid, or that you will see some additional questions to the ones you saw previously. If a question already has an answer, the interviewing program displays it and, if it is still correct, you can move straight to the next question.
