 Sometimes, it is not sufficient for a filter to check individual answers; but rather all the items in a question have to be looked at. Whether it be to look up corresponding items in another question ([[filter-items|Use Selected Items in Another Question]]) or just to check whether at least one item fulfils a particular condition. An exception to this is the calculation of scale indices within the survey ([[points|Count Points for Answers]]).
-This chapter describes the function ''getItems()'' and so-called loops -- two tools which allow sophisticated filters over multiple items. The starting point of this chapter is the following question TF04: a scale. The scale's values and the item IDs are shown in the image for additional information.

-The task is now to check if the respondent uses at least one medium at least once a month. Of course, this could be done with 6 individual conditions linked using the AND operator (''and'') ([[filter-boolean|Linking Multiple Conditions]]). How this can be achieved faster and more neatly is described below.

 **Tip:** If you need the complex determined variable ''$counter'' later on in the questionnaire for another filter, use the function ''[[functions-proc#registervariable|registerVariable()]]''.
-It is often the case, that only the items for the media used as well should be requested in another question. This process is explained in the chapter [[filter-items|Use Selected Items in Another Question]].
