Controls whether users can indicate their confidence level for each questionnaire answer.

    , or
    Defer
    .
  • No
     – Does not display options; users can answer questions normally.

The threshold above which the unsure options are wrapped in a vertical scrollbar

Include unknown or unsure select options in the generated document
Controls how unsure and deferred answers are represented in the generated document.
  • Yes
     – Sure answers appear normally, unsure answers are wrapped in square brackets [ ], and deferred answers are replaced with "..." in the generated document.
  • No
     – Unsure and deferred indicators are not included in the generated document.
