Going real-time

The application is under developement. This is the first prototype version.

This project explores possible solutions for the utilizitation of continuous data deposition, sharing, analysis and reporting to facilitate openness and credibility.

Reporting results real-time

The application analyses google form responses real-time and create an interactive report from the results.

Demo

You can check out and answer the demo questionnaire on HERE.

You can find the running version of the app HERE.

Using the app to report the results of your own questionnaire

Creating the google form

When you create your google form make sure that in the question text you write a short identifier first and separate it from the rest of the question with a dot.

For example, a question can look like this: Q1. Why do I need an identifier?

The app will use this identifiers as variable names that you can use in order to analyse the data or plot your results.

Link the responses to the app

The app reads in the data from a google spreadsheet that is directly linked to the google form.

  • First, in order to report the results of your own questionnaire you have to set the access to the spreadsheet to "Public on the web". Also, you have to enable the "Publish to the web" from the file menu. (Please be aware, that after changing the access to public, anyone on the internet can find and view the responses.)*

  • Second, you have to copy the url of the spreadsheet in the gs_url.txt file and save it.

  • Third, you have to make sure that you have changed the variable names in the code in the app.R file to the variable names you used.

Congratulations! You are done. You can deploy your application and see the automatically updated plots and results.

Further plans

  • Adjust the app to changing browser window size
  • Modularizing the app
  • Transplant the app into a package
  • Add interactive variable selection
  • Add time machine to the BF plot
  • Add robutness test to the BF analysis
  • Make it possible to render pdf reports
