Understanding the Quality Settings

dtect's Quality Settings are a critical component of its security process, designed to ensure the integrity and quality of survey responses by weeding out fraudulent participants. These settings incorporate a series of knowledge-based questions, including three single-select questions and one open-end question, which collectively help to verify the authenticity of respondents.

Quality Settings

First, select your "Audience type(s)". The audience type is the type of participant you're looking for in your survey. We have the following types available:

Prescreener Settings

After selecting your "Audience type(s)", choose whether to show participants the 3 single choice questions, an open-ended question to detect AI usage, or both.

If both the open ended and single select questions are shown to participants, their order will be randomized to prevent fraudulent participants from learning the order or content of questions.

Questions Answered Correctly to Qualify

Finally, select how many of the single choice questions are required to get correctly to proceed. If the slider is set all the way to the right (3), it requires participants to get all 3 questions correct while all the way to the left (1) requires just 1 question to be correct.
