Hello.
In my experiment I am presenting a word list of 9 words. This word list should consist of three words of three different categories (3x3). These words should be extracted out of a pool of words (three pools for each of the categories). The position of words should be randomised.
I tried a lot, but nothing worked so far. Thank you for your help.

+xHello. In my experiment I am presenting a word list of 9 words. This word list should consist of three words of three different categories (3x3). These words should be extracted out of a pool of words (three pools for each of the categories). The position of words should be randomised. I tried a lot, but nothing worked so far. Thank you for your help. Set up a <list> containting the item numbers comprising each "pool of words". Select the requisite amount of item numbers from each pool /onexptbegin and store the respective item numbers in a master list. Use that master list for selection.
<item allitems> / 1 = "Category A Item 01" / 2 = "Category A Item 02" / 3 = "Category A Item 03" / 4 = "Category A Item 04"
/ 5 = "Category B Item 01" / 6 = "Category B Item 02" / 7 = "Category B Item 03" / 8 = "Category B Item 04"
/ 9 = "Category C Item 01" / 10 = "Category C Item 02" / 11 = "Category C Item 03" / 12 = "Category C Item 04" </item>
<text mytext> / items = allitems / select = list.masterlist.nextvalue </text>
// will be populated with item numbers /onexptbegin <list masterlist>
</list>
// items 1 to 4 are category A <list cat_a_itemnumbers> / items = (1,2,3,4) / selectionrate = always </list>
// items 5 to 8 are category B <list cat_b_itemnumbers> / items = (5,6,7,8) / selectionrate = always </list>
// items 9 to 12 are category C <list cat_c_itemnumbers> / items = (9,10,11,12) / selectionrate = always </list>
<trial mytrial> / stimulusframes = [1=mytext] / validresponse = (57) </trial>
<block myblock> / trials = [1-6 = mytrial] </block>
// select 2 random item numbers from category A // select 2 random item numbers from category B // select 2 random item numbers from category C <expt> / onexptbegin = [ list.masterlist.appenditem(list.cat_a_itemnumbers.nextvalue); list.masterlist.appenditem(list.cat_a_itemnumbers.nextvalue);
list.masterlist.appenditem(list.cat_b_itemnumbers.nextvalue); list.masterlist.appenditem(list.cat_b_itemnumbers.nextvalue);
list.masterlist.appenditem(list.cat_c_itemnumbers.nextvalue); list.masterlist.appenditem(list.cat_c_itemnumbers.nextvalue); ] / blocks = [1=myblock] </expt>
