The function ''getValueText()'' returns the verbal response (label) to an answer code. For a selection question this is the text of the corresponding selection option (also determined with ''[[:en:create:functions:getitemtext|getItemtext()]]''). For a scale, the label (verbal anchor) of the corresponding point on the scale is returned. | The function ''getValueText()'' returns the verbal response (label) to an answer code.
