The Either/Or item type is a two-option closed question, typically a true/false or yes/no. The candidate picks one of two alternatives. Use this article to create an Either/Or item.
Either/Or is auto-scored.
When to use Either/Or instead of Multiple choice
Either/Or behaves like a Multiple choice question with two fixed alternatives. The difference is that you cannot add, remove, or mark more than one alternative correct. Use Either/Or when you want a single-line true/false or yes/no question without configuring three slots.
