I have a checklist question with 5 options, with a correct response if
either answer '5' is selected or if answers '1', '2', '3', and '4' are all
selected. My hidden value calculation is the following: if(/data/question =
('1' and '2' and '3' and '4') or '5', 1, 0)
For some reason, it's giving me correct answers no matter what is selected.
What's the problem here?
Thanks!
Hi Eric
You need to use the selected
https://confluence.dimagi.com/display/commcarepublic/CommCare+Functions#CommCareFunctions-selected()
function to determine if a multi-select question has a particular option
selected. In you're case I think this should work:
if((selected(/data/question, '1') and selected(/data/question, '2') and
selected(/data/question, '3') and selected(/data/question, '4')) or
selected(/data/question, '5'), 1, 0)

Hey Simon, thanks for your response. I've copied your suggested code and am
now getting a validation error.
This is what I have in the form: if(selected(/data/E/Balanced_meal, '1')
and selected(/data/E/Balanced_meal, '2') and
selected(/data/E/Balanced_meal, '3') and selected(/data/E/Balanced_meal,
'4')) or selected(/data/E/Balanced_meal, '5'), 1, 0)
Resulting in the following error:
Parse error on line 1:
.../Balanced_meal, '5'), 1, 0)
-----------------------^
Expecting 'EOF', 'OR', 'AND', 'EQ', 'NEQ', 'LT', 'LTE', 'GT', 'GTE', 'PLUS', 'MINUS', 'MULT', 'DIV', 'MOD', 'UNION', got 'COMMA'

Hello Eric,
Removing the one extra bracket after '4' should solve the problem.
I will also suggest you an alternative to the solution, you can use:
if(selected(/data/question1, '1') and selected(/data/question1, '2') and
selected(/data/question1, '3') and selected(/data/question1, '4 ') and
not(selected(/data/question1, '5')) or /data/question1 = '5', "1", "0")
I have added the not(selected(data/question1, '5')) so that it does not
give you '1' when all the five options are selected. I also removed the
selected() function after the or as that would be the only value you want
for your other argument.
Hope this works for you.
