Response Sets define
the ways an evaluator can respond to evaluation questions (e.g. multiple-choice,
narrative). The ability to assign a separate score value to each response
in a multiple-choice response set makes it possible to have one set of
numbers for the evaluator to select and a different set for scoring.
The Response Set Information
dialog provides a place to enter/update this information.
