Here are some common terms you will face while playing with ZEF.
Response
When a respondent gives a response on one of your surveys, you've got one response. When a respondents gives a response on two of your surveys, you've got two responses! If the same respondent gives a response on one survey twice, you again have got two responses.
Card
In your survey you present your questions with the help of cards. One question card has one question or info in it. In Analyze-page you will find data cards which include data of one question, data from the whole question group, or data that has been combined from two different data cards.
Contact
A contact is an identified respondent, as opposed to an anonymous respondent. If a contact gives a response on multiple surveys, you can view and compare all their reponses together to know your contact better.
