Hello,
I would like to create an LDT with words taken from 18 lists (9 word lists, 9 non-word lists, each lists contains 15 words --> 270 words). They shall be shown in a random order.
I now took the LDT example, deleted the neutral category and added my lists.
Could someone tell me how to involve my new lists in the LDT now? Up to now, it only shows the first list of each category.
Thank you!

Enter your 9 x 15 = 135 word items in <item category>. Enter your 9 x 15 = 135 non-word items in <item nonword>. Adjust the trial count accordingly:
<block lexicalDecisionTask>
/ trials = [1=instructions; 2-271=noreplace(ldtcategory, ldtnonword)]
</block>
Alternatively set up separate <trial>, <text> and <item> elements for each of your 9 "word" categories and each of your 9 "nonword" categories. I.e.
<trial ldtcategory1>
/ stimulustimes = [0=ready; 700=category1; 950=blank]
/ validresponse = ("E", "I")
/ correctresponse = ("I")
/beginresponsetime = 700
</trial>
<text category1>
/ items = category1
</text>
<item category1>
/ 1 = "category1_item1"
...
/ 15 = "category1_item15"
</item>
...
<trial ldtnonword9>
/ stimulustimes = [0=ready; 700=nonword9; 950=blank]
/ validresponse = ("E", "I")
/ correctresponse = ("E")
/beginresponsetime = 700
</trial>
<text nonword9>
/ items = nonword9
</text>
<item nonword9>
/ 1 = "nonword9_item1"
...
/ 15 = "nonword9_item15"
</item>
Run those trials via the <block> element in random order:
<block lexicalDecisionTask>
/ trials = [1=instructions; 2-271=noreplace(ldtcategory1, ldtcategory2, ldtcategory3, ldtcategory4, ldtcategory5, ldtcategory6, ldtcategory7, ldtcategory8, ldtcategory9, ldtnonword1, ldtnonword2, ldtnonword3, ldtnonword4, ldtnonword5, ldtnonword6, ldtnonword7, ldtnonword8, ldtnonword9)]
