Radio Buttons

Radio buttons allow a user to select 1 option from a list of 7 or fewer items. To learn more about them, see Radio.

Radio button groups include 2 types of labels:

• A form field label that introduces the radio button group
• A radio label for each option in the group

Radio Button Labels

Like checkbox labels, radio button labels may be capitalized in 2 ways, depending on their length and placement in the UI:

• Use title case for short labels
• Use sentence case for longer labels, or if the label reads like a phrase

We encourage the use of shorter, more concise labels whenever possible.
