LimeSurvey is a popular open source system for making and publishing surveys. All students and staff of the Faculty of Social Sciences can use it.
Log on to survey.socsci.ru.nl/admin with your university number and password to make a survey. Invitations to surveys can be send with a direct link to the survey (e.g. https://survey.socsci.ru.nl/index.php/148355?lang=en) or by referring to the main survey page survey.socsci.ru.nl. Note that in the latter case the participant has to find the survey in a list. By default surveys are not listed on the main page. Change this in the survey settings if you wish. The preferred way is using direct links.

Template
The TSG has helped to create a Radboud-branded template for Limesurvey. To use this template for your survey, follow these steps.
Note: The Radboud template does not yet feature a responsive design and may therefore not be suitable for use on mobile devices or small screens. An updated, responsive template is planned to be released by the end of 2015.
Sona integration
If you want to use Sona to invite people to take your survey, please follow the manual provided bij Sona.
Data Storage
Surveys and collected data are stored on campus. The server is not to be used for long term data storage. Surveys and data will be removed after a year without prior warning.
Support
The TSG only provides limited technical support for Limesurvey. Users themselves are responsible for the creation and design of their surveys, as well as the data analysis. For questions about the use of Limesurvey, please consult the manual or the community support. For technical support, contact Chi Lieu (system administrator) or Eric Lieffers (server administrator).
