4 Post-test variables allow, for example, **learner responses from individual questions to be used in subsequent questions**. Access to learner responses of previous questions supports the consideration of follow-up mistakes and facilitates splitting complex questions into sub-steps.

6 In the following example "ice cream sale", the learner response given in question 1 will be used and further processed in the subsequent questions 2 and 3.

44 **Test variables:**
45
46 In the example, “post-processed” (post) variables will be created **at test level** and set to the value of the learner response for each question. For example, the test variable {LR1} will be set to the value of the learner response, i. e. the entry of the participant, for the first question.
47
48 (% style="letter-spacing:0.0px" %)By assigning learner responses to variables of subsequent questions, you can use these learner responses continuously over multiple questions. More specifically, the value of the test variable {LR1}, i. e. the learner response to the first question, will be passed to the variable Item_LR2 of the second question.

62 **Question variables and calculation of follow-up mistakes: **
63
64 The value of the question variable Item_LR1 will be initialised by the test system. Upon the submission of the first test question, the learner response will be stored in the post-test variable LR_1. When the second question opens, this value will be passed on to question 2 due to the assignment to the question variable Item_LR1.
65
66 (% style="letter-spacing:0.0px" %)Whether or not a learner response has been entered for question 1 will be checked using a condition:
67
68 * If a response has been entered, the correct solution (CR_2) will be calculated on the basis of the learner response.
69 * If no response has been entered, the correct answer (750) from the first question will be used for further processing.
70
71 **Creation of an individual hint:**
72
73 The auxiliary variable “Hint” allows you to generate an individual hint for the participant. It will again be checked with a condition whether or not the participant has entered a response for question 1.
74
75 * If the participant has entered a response, it will again be displayed in the second question.
76 * If the participant has not entered a response (NULL) or typed 0 as an answer, they will be shown a general hint and the correct solution.
