Abbreviations and Acronyms
We have a few abbreviations and acronyms we try to use to make mTABBING easier.
(MK) - This indicates a multiple response question. When you see this at the end of a question you should be aware that the reponses may add up to more than 100%.
(G1) - This indicates a group question. Group questions work differently and cannot be combined with other groups so it is important to distinguish them from one another. If there is a dominant group question which the other questions in the group need to be run against, it is usually the first one in a list, and it may be indicated by a (DG1).
(BR) - This can be used to indicate that a numeric table has "breaks" or "ranges" rather than every possible response. So instead of having 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 all separately, you may just see a "1 thru 5" response.
? - This is often used to indicate a yes/no
question.
