I want to know how do you treat refusal or skipping responses during IDELA data analysis.

Usually you would consider them the same as ‘incorrect’ (when calculating domain scores). In certain cases some users might want to do a separate analysis of missing answers/refusals.

i think for the refusal question it’s treated separately in the analysis, but the skipped response are scored and use in the calculation of domain. Because to skip a question it must have a relevant to do this, it’s why it’s use in the calculation.
