By default, respondents are provided with a text field into which they can type their responses. It’s often desirable to instead give them a pop-up menu of choices (called a category set in Fathom). Here’s how: Click in the Format field for the attribute and choose Define New Category Set from the pop-up menu.

Type the options in the order you want them to appear, with commas between items.

Once you have defined a category set, it appears in the Format pop-up menu, allowing you to apply it to more than one attribute. (For example, you can have a category set with the options no response, I love it, I like it, I don’t care, I don’t like it, I hate it, which you can use for several questions.)
