Equal Randomization?

Hello,
I am currently writing a script that uses equal randomization (with random numbers generated by Inquisit), but I'm not sure if this is the correct format to do it. Could you please review it below?

<batch condition01>
/ subjects = (1 of 2)
/ file= "Batch UVA Final.iqx"
</batch>

<batch condition02>
/ subjects = (2 of 2)
/ file= "Batch VCU.iqx"
</batch>

Thanks.

I'm not sure what exactly you mean by "equal randomization" and "random numbers generated by Inquisit".

What the <batch> elements you posted will do is administer the script "Batch UVA Final.iqx" to participants who have been assigned an *odd* subject number and the script ""Batch VCU.iqx" to participants who have been assigned an *even* subject number.

Where those subject numbers come from / how they are generated depends: When using Inquisit Lab, you simply enter them. When using Inquisit Web, you would -- among other options -- have the launch page generate either a random or sequential subject number, or pass the subject number in to the launch page via query parameter.
