Group: Forum Members Posts: 8, Visits: 50	Hi, I am new to Inquisit and so I have been trying to create a script by changing some of the sample scripts to fit my experiment instead of starting from scratch. However there is not a script that is quite like what I am trying to do and I keep getting error messages. Here is what I am trying to do: I want an IAT with two attributes and two targets, both with mixed picture and text stimuli. The issue seems to be with creating targets with both picture and text stimuli, I haven't seen any samples with this in them. Here is some of the script for the stimuli: <item attributeAlabel> /1 = "Democrats" </item> <item attributeAText> /1 = "Liberal" /2 = "Left Wing" /3 = "Democrat" </item> <item attributeAPictures> /1 = "dem-donkey.gif" </item> <item attributeBlabel> /1 = "Republicans" </item> <item attributeBText> /1 = "Conservative" /2 = "Right Wing" /3 = "Republican" </item> <item attributeBPictures> /1= "rep-elephant.gif" </item> <item targetAlabel> /1 = "American" </item> <item targetAText> / 1 = "USA" / 2 = "America" </item> <item targetAPictures> / 1 = "us-flag.jpg" / 2 = "us-map.jpg" </item> <item targetBlabel> /1 = "Foreign" </item> <item targetBText> / 1 = "UK" / 2 = "Foreign" </item> <item targetBPictures> / 1 = "fo-flag.gif" / 2 = "fo-map.png" </item> Here are the error messages I have been getting: text.targetAText items Could not locate item 'targetA'. text.targetBText items Could not locate item 'targetA'. trial.targetAleft stimulusframes Could not locate element 'targetA'. I have tried editing some of the script in the trials and blocks, I feel like it is somewhere in there that I need to change some more stuff. Does anyone with some more experience with inquisit have some ideas on what I am doing wrong/what I need to do to allow it let me have two targets with mixed picture and text stimuli? Thanks so much for your help!! It is greatly appreciated!! Kate Tags IAT picture and text IAT picture and text stimuli two target
