There are three steps to follow when creating a new project by uploading data from Qualtrics:
Intellectus allows users to import data from various types of saved files, including comma-separated (.CSV), Excel (.XLSX), SPSS (.SAV), Statistical Analysis Software (SAS), and Stata (.DTA).
Qualtrics allows users to export data in a variety of formats. Although Intellectus Statistics accepts a few of these, we suggest downloading your data as either an Excel (XLSX) file or a Comma Separated Value (CSV) file. For simplicity, we will walk you through how to download, prep, and import your data using an Excel file.
To download your data from Qualtrics, follow the steps below:
Step 1: Under “Data & Analysis,” select the “Data” tab.
Step 2: Here you will find the option to “Export & Import” data. Selecting this prompts a dropdown with the option to “Export Data…”. If you cannot find this tab you may either (a) have a free account that does not allow data export, or (b) have an institution or work account and need to request permission from your brand administrator.
Step 3: Select the type of file you would like to download. In this example, we will be using an Excel file. Once selected, click download at the bottom of the page.
Step 1: After downloading your file from Qualtrics, within your zip file you can open your saved data. If prompted, select “Enable Editing.”
Step 2: To prepare your data for use in Intellectus Statistics, make sure your dataset is organized into columns with the variable names at the top and that all data pertaining to a single participant is entered into only their one corresponding row in the worksheet. You may notice that at the top of your Excel file there are a couple of extra rows above your data, one stating the question number and the other with the question itself. Delete these rows, and in their place add the variable names. Qualtrics also exports data with several extra columns. Only retain the columns that you wish to conduct analyses on and delete the rest.

Once you have the Excel file prepped, you can sign in to Intellectus Statistics. After logging in, follow the steps below to upload data to Intellectus from Qualtrics:
Step 1: Navigate to the “Projects” tab.
Step 2: Click the “Upload a Data File” button in the “Create a Project” panel.
Step 3: Specify how you would like your file saved after downloading your data as Qualtrics supports multiple file types. Click the option that reflects your save file type.
Step 4: Click “Choose File” and find the file you would like to upload. After selecting the data file, click “Upload File.”
If you are having trouble uploading your file into Intellectus Statistics, check to make sure your document is not in “Protected View.” If your document is, you can open your save file and “Enable Editing.”
Step 5: Intellectus will autodetect which level of measurement you used. If this is done incorrectly, or if you would like to change the measurement type, select the correct one from the drop-down underneath the heading “Level of Measurement.” Within this drop-down, you also have the option of managing your data. Here you can add, merge, and delete the levels of your variables.
Step 6: Click “Continue,” and then you are ready to start analyzing your data!

Uploading Data to Intellectus From Survey Monkey
Uploading Data to Intellectus From Google Forms
There are three steps to follow when creating a new project using data from Survey Monkey:
Intellectus allows users to import data from various types of saved files, including comma-separated (.CSV), Excel (.XLSX), SPSS (.SAV), Statistical Analysis Software (SAS), and Stata (.DTA).
Survey Monkey allows users to export data in a variety of formats*. Although Intellectus Statistics accepts a few of these, we suggest downloading your data as either an Excel (XLS) file or a Comma Separated Value (CSV) file. For simplicity, we will walk you through how to download, prep, and import your data using an Excel file.
*Only paid plan users are allowed to export data from Survey Monkey.
To download your data from Survey Monkey, follow the steps below:
Step 1: In Survey Monkey, navigate to “Analyze Results.”
Step 2: In the upper right-hand corner, click: “Save As” > “Export file” > “All responses data.”
Step 3: The default selections are “XLS,” Condensed,” and “Actual Answer Text.” For our purposes, we will leave these as are. Click “Export.”
Step 4: Now that Survey Monkey has generated the export file, a notification will pop up in the right-hand corner of the screen. Here you can click “Download.”
Step 1: After downloading your file from Survey Monkey, within your Zip folder you can open your saved data. If prompted, “Enable Editing.”
Step 2: To prepare your data for use in Intellectus Statistics, make sure your dataset is organized into columns with the variable names at the top and that all data pertaining to a single participant is entered into only their one corresponding row in the worksheet. You may notice that at the top of your Excel file there are a couple of extra rows above your data, one stating the question and the other stating the type of measurement. Delete these rows and in their place add the variable names. Survey Monkey also exports data with several extra columns. Only retain the columns that you wish to conduct analyses on and delete the rest.

Uploading Data to Intellectus From Google Forms
Uploading Data to Intellectus From Qualtrics
There are three steps to follow when creating a new project by uploading survey data from a Google Survey:
Intellectus allows users to import data from various types of saved files, including comma-separated (.CSV), Excel (.XLSX), SPSS (.SAV), Statistical Analysis Software (SAS), and Stata (.DTA).
Step 1: Navigate to the “Responses” tab.
Step 2: Click the more options button (three vertical dots) located to the right side of the number of responses. This will open a drop-down menu.
Step 3: Select “Download responses (.csv)” from the list.
Google Sheets offers two different types of save files that are compatible with Intellectus Statistics: Microsoft Excel (.XLSX) and Comma-separated values (.CSV). We suggest using the .XLSX file as it typically retains the most functionality.
To download, click:
“File” > “Download” > either “Microsoft Excel (.XLSX)” or a “Comma-separated values (.CSV)”.
Step 1: After downloading your file from Google Forms or Google Sheets, within your Zip folder you can open your saved data. If prompted, “Enable Editing.”
Step 2: To prepare your data for use in Intellectus Statistics, make sure your dataset is organized into columns with the variable names at the top and that all data pertaining to a single participant is entered into only their one corresponding row in the worksheet. You may notice that at the top of your Excel file the first row states the survey question. Replace these with the variable names you wish to use. There may also be extra columns, such as a timestamp. Only retain the columns that you wish to conduct analyses on and delete the rest.
