The response type properties page displays all the pieces of the response type and how they interact together. There are also controls for adding new parts to the response type or editing current ones.
Once a response type has been added to an evaluation it can no longer be edited (except for the title) or deleted. If a response type is locked, a message will appear across the top saying, "This evaluation type is locked, because it is used on (#) evaluation(s)."
Delete Response Type Button
Click this button to delete the response type. This will only be available if the response type is not used on an evaluation.
Response Type Title
The title that you have already entered. You can edit it in line and then click the Save Title button.
Add Choice
Use this area to add additional response choices. Keep in mind that there are already 3 default response choices that you can edit at the bottom of the page.
•Choice Text: Enter the words that will describe this choice.
•Value: Choices will be displayed in order of value. We recommend using positive integers for satisfactory responses and negative for unsatisfactory ones.

If your response types use Values consistently you can get average values for questions from the Aggregated Evaluation Report.
