An Activity is a form, survey, or check-in that you build to gather data from your participants. They are the core of how you track progress and engage with users, and each Activity is made up of one or more Questions.

</aside>

🗓️ General Activities

A general Activity (like a Questionnaire or Reflection) is designed to be scheduled. You can assign it to a participant, or as part of a recurring action plan within a Journey. This allows you to prompt the user to complete it on a regular basis, for example, every Monday morning.

<aside> 💡

Example Imagine a coach wants to track a participant's mood at the start of every week.

1. They create a standard Activity named 'Weekly Mood Check-In'.
2. Inside, they add a single multiple-choice Question: "How is your mood today?" with scored options like 'Great', 'Okay', and 'Not Good'.
3. They then add this Activity to a recurring action plan in the participant's Journey, setting it to appear every Monday. </aside>

⚖️ Health Measures

Health Measures are a special type of Activity designed specifically for ongoing, self-paced tracking by a participant.

A Health Measure is unique because it is unscheduled. Once assigned to a participant, it remains persistently available in their app. This allows them to enter data at any time and as often as they like, which is perfect for logging metrics like weight, sleep hours, or pain levels on an ad-hoc basis.

<aside> 💡

Example Imagine a coach needs a participant to log their weight regularly, but on a flexible schedule.

1. They create a Health Measure named 'Log Your Weight'.
2. Inside, they add a Question with the 'Number' format and set the unit to 'kg'.
3. Once assigned, this measure is always available in the participant's app, allowing them to enter their weight whenever is convenient. </aside>

Building an Activity: The Questions

A Question is the individual field you add inside an Activity to collect a piece of data. Questions are created within an activity and are specific to that activity.

Question Preamble

Every question, regardless of its format, can include optional preamble Content such as text or images to provide instructions or context to the participant before they answer.

Question Format

When you add a question, you must choose a format that determines how the participant will answer.

• ❓Text/Multiple Choice: This versatile format can be used for both open-ended text responses and for selecting from a list of predefined options.
  • Example with Options: A question asking "Which of these best describes your energy levels?" with predefined, selectable options like 'High', 'Moderate', and 'Low'.
  • Example without Options: A question asking "What is one thing you are grateful for today?" where the participant types their answer into a text box.
• 💯 Number: This format is for numerical input and can be displayed in two ways.
  • Example as a Slider: A question asking "On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate your sleep quality?" where the participant drags a slider to select their rating.
  • Example as a Single Input: A question asking "How many minutes of exercise did you complete today?" where the participant types a number into a field.
• ✅ Yes/No: A simple choice between two options.
  • Example: A question like "Did you complete your morning exercise today?".
• 📚 Content Page: Use to display information (text, images, or video) without requiring a response. For more information please read Contents and Content Areas
  • Example: A page that displays a "Welcome to Week 2" message and a short instructional video.

Scoring and Data

You can configure your activities to automatically calculate a total score based on participant responses.

How Activity Scoring Works

First, you select a Scoring Strategy for the overall Activity that determines how the individual scores are combined. Then, you set the score for each option within your individual Questions, An optional Score Multiplier can be used to scale the final result.

The available scoring strategies are:

• Sum: Adds the scores from all answered questions to produce a total (e.g., 2 + 3 + 1 = 6).
• Average: Calculates the mean score of all answered questions. This strategy also considers the Weight you can assign to each question, giving some questions more importance than others.
• Min: Finds the single lowest score from all the answered questions.
• Max: Finds the single highest score from all the answered questions.
• Median: Finds the middle score after all answered questions' scores are sorted.
• Concat: Joins the answers from all questions into a single text string. This is useful for non-numeric, text-based activities.
• None: No scoring is calculated for this activity.

Creating an Activity

1. Navigate to the side menu and select More → Activities.
2. Click the button to create a new one.
3. Give it a name and, most importantly, select its Activity Area. Choose Health Measure for unscheduled tracking or another type (like Questionnaire) for a standard, schedulable activity.
4. Use the form builder to add and configure the Questions for this specific activity.
5. Configure the Scoring Strategy if needed and save.

Assigning an Activity

You can assign your creations to participants in two primary ways:

• Via a Journey: Add the item as an attachment or action plan to a Journey.
• Via the Participant Dashboard: Assign items directly to an individual for personalised tracking.
