Looking at the Task Type IDENTIFY

Sub-types of IDENTIFY

The IDENTIFY task can be divided into the two following sub-types: 

CHOOSE one or more items from a number of (discrete) items. 

This sub-type can be based on any of the following: a single selection of multiple choices, multiple selections of multiple choices, or a true/false choice. The interactions traditionally associated with this task are: Choice and Hotspot.

Note: It is also possible to use other interactions - see the section: Task sub-type: CHOOSE. 

PINPOINT a position on a continuum. 

This sub-type can either make use of a scale of some kind, or can ask for a graphical position. The interactions traditionally associated with this task are: Select Point and Slider.
