Personality quizzes serve different purposes. Depending on your use-case and requirements, we offer two types of point logic systems:
Simple Logic: A straightforward system with a 0–4 points range, ideal for fun and exploratory quizzes, like casual or branded personality quizzes.
Advanced Logic: A more detailed approach where you can assign positive or negative points to each response, and there is no limit to the number of points you can allocate to an answer. This solution is best for product recommendation quizzes, as it ensures products match the user’s needs while also disqualifying options based on their answers.
You can choose the logic for a personality quiz in the Settings step:
How to configure Simple Logic
Follow these steps to create a personality quiz using Simple Logic effectively.
Step 1: Add Results
Begin by defining the results your quiz will offer. Each result can include:
A title
Description
Image
Optionally, a call-to-action button (e.g., "Explore More").
Step 2: Define Questions and Responses
Create the questions and responses for your quiz. Each question should guide the user toward a result based on their answers. Ensure the responses are diverse and cover the range of user preferences or behaviors.
Step 3: Associate Responses with Results
Assign points to each response based on how closely it aligns with a specific result. Use a scale of 0–4 points, where:
0 points indicate no relevance to the result.
4 points indicate the highest level of relevance.
Example: Imagine we're designing a travel-themed quiz. One question could focus on weather preferences. Based on answer examples: Bali, France, and Iceland, we could associate the responses with the results as follows:
"I prefer hot weather"
Bali: 4 points
France: 2 points
Iceland: 0 points
"I love the sun but don't mind a bit of wind now and then"
Bali: 2 points
France: 4 points
Iceland: 1 point
"I like it cold."
Bali: 0 points
France: 2 points
Iceland: 4 points
This scoring will determine the result that best matches the user’s answers by the end of the quiz.

Step 4: Define Skip Logic (Optional)
To streamline the quiz experience, implement skip logic rules where appropriate. Skip logic ensures users are only asked questions that are relevant based on their previous answers. For instance, if a user’s response makes certain results irrelevant, you can skip related follow-up questions.
Example: In a travel quiz, if a user selects a preference for warm weather, you can skip questions about winter destinations.

How to configure Advanced Logic
This part of the article provides a step-by-step guide to configuring Advanced Logic to create a product recommendation quiz.
Step 1: Add the Products
Begin by adding products as quiz results. Each product can include:
A title
Description
Image
Optionally, a call-to-action button (e.g., "Buy Now").
Each result represents one product, and the quiz logic is built around them.
Step 2: Add the Qualifying/Disqualifying Questions
Add quiz questions that help identify which products are most suitable for the user.
Disqualifying Questions: These eliminate products based on specific answers. For instance, if a product exceeds the user’s budget, it can be disqualified.
Qualifying Questions: These highlight why certain products are better than others. For example, if two products could fit the user, and the user is price sensitive (but not limited in budget), the cheaper product should get more points.
Step 3: Define the Association Point Range
Establish a range of positive points to allocate for each answer. For example:
Use a simple range like 0 - 5 points or 0 - 10 points to capture nuances without overcomplicating the system.
Step 4: Define the Disqualifying Threshold
Define a sufficiently negative number to disqualify a product, ensuring it won’t be selected. For example, you can first calculate the maximum number of points a product can achieve and make sure that the negative number overcomes the maximum possible point value.
Example: If the maximum points the product can get is 50, you would set the disqualification threshold at -51 or -100, etc.
Step 5: Configure Point Allocation
For each question and answer, assign points as follows:
Disqualify Products: Use a high negative value to disqualify a product. Recommendation: −(MAX POINTS+1)
Allocate Points: Assign positive points within the defined range based on relevance to the product (a higher number of points means a higher level of association).
Direct Qualification: If only one product remains qualified after an answer, skip directly to that result and conclude the quiz.
Define a Fallback Result: If all products are disqualified, configure a default product with 0 points to avoid an empty recommendation.
Step 6: Define Skip Logic (Optional)
Design the skip logic rules to streamline the quiz - ask only relevant questions based on earlier answers.
Example: If the user indicates a low budget, skip questions about high-end products. You can read more about it here.
Example Product Quiz Logic
Consider a quiz with 3 products, 3 questions, and a point range of 0 - 10 points:
Products:
Salty Chips & Peanuts Box
Fresh Berries Box
Spicy Carrot Sticks
Question | Response | Salty Chips & Peanuts Box | Fresh Berries | Spicy Carrot Sticks |
1. Taste Preference | Sweet | 0 | 10 | 0 |
| Spicy | 0 | 0 | 10 |
| Salty | 10 | 0 | 5 |
2. Allergies | No | 10 | 10 | 10 |
| Nuts allergy | -200 | 10 | 10 |
3. Snack's healthiness | Super healthy | 0 | 10 | 5 |
| Well-balanced with good taste | 0 | 5 | 10 |
| Quick and easy, preferably crunchy | 10 | 0 | 0 |
Score Calculation Example
|
Salty Chips & Peanuts Box: 0p. + 10p + 0p = 10p.
Fresh Berries Box: 0p. + 10p. + 10p. = 20p.
Spicy Carrot Sticks: 10p. + 10p. + 5p. = 25p.
In this case, Product 3 (Spicy Carrot Sticks) is recommended with the highest score.
|
Salty Chips & Peanuts Box: 0p. + (-200p) + 10p = -190p
Fresh Berries Box: 10p. + 10p. + 0p. = 20p.
Spicy Carrot Sticks: 0p. + 10p. + 0p. = 10p.
In this case, Product 2 (Fresh Berries Box) is recommended with the highest score.
