Priority ranking questions may have up to 10 answer choices. Items are ranked by the participants and then scored based on response weights. The response weight designates the number of votes each participant’s first, second, third, etc. responses may receive. For example, a response weight of 10 for a first choice (response) equals 10 votes for every participant’s first choice (response).
