Recommended Cleaning Settings

For optimal data quality, we recommend keeping ReDem’s default cleaning settings. Interviews will be flagged as bad quality if any of the following apply:
  • ReDem Score < 60
  • Two or more grid questions have a Grid-Question Score < 20
  • Two or more open-ended questions have an Open-Ended Score < 40
  • Two or more open-ended answers are classified as:
    • AI-Generated
    • Nonsense
    • Wrong Topic
    • Wrong Language
    • Bad Language
  • Time Score < 20
  • Two or more open-ended questions have a Behavioral Analytics Score < 20
  • Coherence Score < 30
You can adjust these thresholds if needed.

  • First, choose the questions for the Click Pattern Check, which analyzes grid questions.
  • Then, select the questions for the Open-Ended Check, which reviews text responses.
  • Next, define the questions used for the Time Score, which evaluates response times.
  • After that, select the questions for the Behavioral Analytics Score, which assesses how participants enter their responses.

Re-clean Your Data

If needed, you can re-clean your data directly on the ReDem platform. This allows you to apply different cleaning settings after the survey has finished. To do this, open the relevant survey, click on “Cleaning Settings” at the top of the page, select a new configuration, and then reprocess the data using the updated settings. This flexibility ensures that you can refine your data quality thresholds even after data collection is complete.
