Provided methods and systems allow dynamic rendering of a reflexive questionnaire based on a modifiable spreadsheet for users with little to no programming experience and knowledge. Some methods comprise receiving a modifiable spreadsheet with multiple rows, each row comprising rendering instructions for a reflexive questionnaire from a first computer, such as a data type cell, statement cell, logic cell, and a field identifier; rendering a graphical user interface, on a second computer, comprising a label and an input element corresponding to the rendering instructions of a first row of the spreadsheet; receiving an input from the second computer; evaluating the input against the logic cell of the spreadsheet; in response to the input complying with the logic cell of the spreadsheet, dynamically rendering a second label and a second input element to be displayed on the graphical user interface based on the logic of the first row.

Systems and methods for reflexive questionnaire generation using a spreadsheet

A method comprises retrieving a file comprising a parent worksheet comprising a first row comprising a first statement, a first data type identifier, and a first logic; in response to receiving a first rendering request from a client computing device, generating a child worksheet in the spreadsheet comprising a second row, wherein the second row inherits the first row; receiving a second request to modify at least one of the first statement in the second statement cell, the first data type identifier in the second data type cell, or the first logic in the second logic cell; and rendering a graphical user interface based on the modified child worksheet.

Methods and systems described herein allow dynamic rendering of a reflexive questionnaire based on a modifiable spreadsheet for users with little to no programming experience and knowledge. The method and system allow retrieving a spreadsheet to generate a dynamic and reflexive graphical user interface and to pre-populate one or more input elements within the reflexive graphical user interface based on user information retrieved from a disparate data source, where the spreadsheet may be configured for a worksheet inheritance or where the worksheet may be accessed through a check-in/check-out functionality.

A method comprising displaying a first GUI to a first client comprising an option to check-out and a check-in a spreadsheet comprising at least one row comprising a statement a statement, a data type identifier, and a logic; checking-out the file such that the file cannot be modified by a second client; receiving from the first client, a modification request and a modification input; modifying the checked-out spreadsheet based on the modification input; checking-in the file; generating a set of rendering instructions corresponding to a second GUI based on the modified spreadsheet; and transmitting the set of rendering instructions to a computing device associated with a third client, whereby the set of rendering instructions causes the computing device associated with the third client to display the second graphical user interface.
