How to conduct online survey using CINT panel
SurveyLab works with different online survey panels like CINT, mypanellab.com, luc.id, or Dynata (ResearchNow/SSI). In this article, you will find short instruction that describes how to conduct a survey using CINT survey panel.
To start a research project :
Cint
- Log into CINT.
- Create a New project and copy redirection links (survey completed, screen-out, quota full). You will need them to set up a survey collector in SurveyLab.
- Go back into CINT and paste the survey link copied from the SurveyLab collector link share page.
- Add /crk/[ID]/ parameter at the end of your survey link.
- To automatically add data like gender or age to the survey report use http referrer or user attributes functionality. To do it add a parameter at the end of your survey link eg. /crk/[ID]/referrer/[S]-[YOB]-[AGE]/custom1/[S]/custom2/[YOB]/custom3/[AGE]/
| Parameter (URL) | Description |
|---|---|
| /crk/[ID]/ | Response Key. |
| /crk/[ID]/referrer/[S]-[YOB]-[AGE]/ | Response Key and referrer. |
| /crk/[ID]/custom1/[S]/custom2/[YOB]/custom3/[AGE]/ | Response Key and user attributes. |
| /crk/[ID]/referrer/[S]-[YOB]-[AGE]/custom1/[S]/custom2/[YOB]/custom3/[AGE]/ | Response Key, referrer, and user attributes. |
EXAMPLE. https://feedback.surveylab.com/pageTag/SurveyCampaign/cId/1a74f0bf67bfe46ad22d4d9301b4b37bab47075ec/crk/[ID]/referrer/[S]-[YOB]-[AGE]/custom1/[S]/custom2/[YOB]/custom3/[AGE]/
Using parameters in the survey link CINT can automatically transfer the following information into your SurveyLab survey :
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| [ID] | = Respondent ID |
| [M] | = Member ID |
| [P] | = Panelist ID |
| [PC] | = Postal code |
| [S] | = Gender (male = 1, female = 2) |
| [YOB] | = Year of birth |
| [AGE] | = Age |
Thanks to this functionality you don’t need to ask your respondents about gender or age. This data can be transferred automatically into your survey using the http referrer (referrer/[S]-[YOB]-[AGE]) or user attributes mechanism.
