After putting out a patient experience survey, you want to view your results.<\/p>\n<div class=\"div-minispacer\"><\/div>\n<p>You could scroll through the whole report, looking at the individual score for each question and sub-question.<\/p>\n<div class=\"div-minispacer\"><\/div>\n<p>Or, to get a view of the bigger picture, you could use Weighted Score. Don\u2019t get me wrong. The Omni Report by itself is super useful and has lots of great data, but sometimes you just want a quick overview. A weighted Score is perfect for this.<\/p>\n<div class=\"div-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h2>How to use Weighted Score<\/h2>\n<p>At the top of the Omni Report, click on Score. In the pop-out, select Weighted Score, add a description, and choose where you want this to appear in your report. Next, you have the option to display the Weighted Score as either Overall Score, Question Scores, or Grouped Question Scores.<\/p>\n<div class=\"div-minispacer\"><\/div>\n<p><strong>Overall Score<\/strong> is just what it sounds like: the average overall score of your selected rating questions. For example, if you have 20 rating questions in your survey, each rated on a scale from 1-5. Your Overall Score for Weighted Score might be a 4.05. This 4.05 is out of 5, the highest rating someone could select.<\/p>\n<div class=\"div-minispacer\"><\/div>\n<p><strong>Question Scores<\/strong> is the average score per question. This is similar to Overall Score, but it shows the average score per question.<\/p>\n<div class=\"div-spacer\"><\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-49765 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sogolytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/score3-1024x697.png\" alt=\"Weighted question score bar diagram\" width=\"1024\" height=\"697\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sogolytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/score3.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.sogolytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/score3-300x204.png 300w, https:\/\/www.sogolytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/score3-768x523.png 768w, https:\/\/www.sogolytics.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/score3-50x34.png 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"div-spacer\"><\/div>\n<p><strong>Grouped Questions Scores<\/strong> displays the average weighted scores of groups of questions that you create.
