If you see rows of green lines below the answer option, the questionnaire defines serveral variables or informations are stored in more than one data set. The routing by filters is depicted in blue. Each variable is preceded by an identifier, which usually contains the question number and which is used when the variable is used in filters in subsequent questions. Such filters are usually placed as input filters (gatekeepers) at the beginning of a question. An identifier that is referred to in the input filter of a subsequent question is marked yellow as an example. This reading aid does not cover a few exceptional cases: If the filter (as gatekeeper) only affects one of serveral variables for a question, the filter is printed in blue behind the variable. There you will also find a “go to” command in the form 2 @ Q73. Here, the questionnaire skips to question 73 if answer 2 was given. Phrases that are not alreday translated in English are displayed in German and preceded by [de].
