However, when analyzing some types of Anchored MaxDiff https://wiki.q-researchsoftware.com/wiki/Anchored_MaxDiff, it’s necessary to create new maxdiff variables instead of the standard best/worst variables. In a moderately sized maxdiff this will involve generating hundreds of new variables by hand. The QScript above automates the process of creating those variables, making it much simpler to analyze an Anchored MaxDiff.
Alternatively, expanding our R-based tools to analyze Anchored MaxDiff data would make this unnecessary.
