Interviewing: Introduction
In the Introduction settings, you can define the introductory script that interviewers should read to each participant. You can use HTML or plain text, and switch to other languages.
When an autodialer connects a telephone interviewer to a participant (or, for projects that do not use an autodialer, when the interviewer requests a number to call), interviewers are provided with an introductory text that they can read to the participant to explain the reason for the call. UNICOM Intelligence Interviewer - Server Admin comes with a default text that is suitable for all surveys, but you can define your own text that is more specific to the current project.
