Randomize tests within experiment

iawel2023 — Tue, 27 Dec 2022 00:20:52 GMT

Hello! I would like to randomize the order of certain test within my experiment. My experiment is made up of 6 Single Category IAT tests. I would like tests 1&2 to be randomized, 3&4 to be randomized, and 5& 6 to be randomized. i.e - random test order could be 2,1,3,4,6,5 but NOT 6,3,5,1,2,4. Is there a way to do this?

Create a batch script with three batch elements defined like so:

[code]<batch a>
/ file = "sciat01.iqx"
/ file = "sciat02.iqx"
/ selectionmode = random
</batch>

<batch b>
/ file = "sciat03.iqx"
/ file = "sciat04.iqx"
/ selectionmode = random
</batch>

<batch c>
/ file = "sciat05.iqx"
/ file = "sciat06.iqx"
/ selectionmode = random
</batch>[/code]
