Hide a choice, select it through JS and give it a score

Hello everyone,

Is it possible to add a choice button that is invisible and that is always selected if choice Yes=1 is selected?
Additionally, I need to assign a score to that invisible button, that is counted if it is activated?

So basically, can I make the button disappear, but
(1) still select it through javascript?
(2) still give it a score beforehand?

Thank you,
Liss

Why not just assign the score to Yes?

Anyway, you could do it, but your question would have to be a multi-select with No exclusive. Then, hide the third choice with JS.
```
jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" li.Selection").eq(2).hide();
```

You are right, I thought too complicated. But I can't make the code work. Maybe you can help me with it?

If t ${e://Field/Correction_score} == "${gr://SC_cACxBQtCmaZwCln/Score}",
set the initial_choice =choice
if not, set the correctedchoice = choice.

The choice can be 1 or 0. The important thing is that he doesn't overwrite the other choice.
e.g. EDScore and Score are equal and the choice is 1=yes: initial_choice becomes 1 nothing happens to correctedchoice.
EDScore and Score are unequal and the choice changes to 0=no: correctedchoice becomes 1 and initial_choice stays 0.

Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnPageSubmit(function() {

var selectedRecode = this.getChoiceRecodeValue(this.getSelectedChoices());
var choice = (selectedRecode == 1) ? 1 : 0;
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData("Choice", choice);

var correctedchoice = [];
var initial_choice = [];

if ( parseInt("${e://Field/Correction_score}") == ("${gr://SC_cACxBQtCmaZwCln/Score}")) {
initial_choice = choice;
} else {
correctedchoice = choice;
};

Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData("Initial_choice", initial_choice);
Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData("Correctedchoice", correctedchoice);
