Make assessment questions dependent on each other?

I have a set of 23 assessment questions, some are yes/no and some are multiple choice, some are radio buttons.

Reqmnt1:
Say we have questions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
if answer to 1 is yes, only then 2 and 3 should be displayed.

Reqmnt2:
Say 3 has 5 options a,b,c,d,e.
if c/d are chosen, then value for 4 and 5 should be defaulted to one of their options respectively.

challenge with reqmnt 1 is, only one of the questions 2/3 are being displayed as expected, not both.

challenge with reqmnt 2:
 - for starters, am not quite sure how to achieve this? Am talking about these validations on the assessments UI page.
any suggestions please?

TIA!

Regards,
Meher.

Requirement 1

This is possible when you're setting up the questions via the Designer.    For each of the Questions that are dependent on a previous question, click on the gear icon to the far right, which will open up the properties for the field.   Then on the bottom, you should be able to switch from the field properties to the Dependency tab.   Select Question 1 in the Displayed When field and the Yes in the next field.    You have to do this on both Questions 2 and 3.  It sounds like you have it only setup on Question 2.

Thank you Sabrina.

My problem was - if I have more than one question depend on the output of a certain question, the output was inconsistent. 

For ex: if value 'not known' is chosen for question A. then questions B and C should be hidden. however, sometimes A is hidden and B is not; and sometimes the other way around.

 

Anyway, the requirement is parked for now, I hope I ll resolve this soon enough.

Apologize the delayed response, we were in an upgrade.

Can you explain a bit more about Requirement 2 - what do you mean by defaulted to an option?  What type of question is #3; choice, multiple selection?

If I can rephrase that, imagine a multiple choice question - say checkbox, which has different options and 'none'. so if the user selects 'none', he should not be allowed to check any of the other options on the same question. Still not sure how to achieve this.
