Hello,
In my study I have to present sequences of pictures and words (i.e., fixation +, then picture, then word). I would like to have pictures and words presented the same number of times. I tried to follow the instructions that I found in other posts with similar questions but it seems that I am making a mistake somewhere because I manage to have the pictures presented correctly but not words.
For example, I would like to have the word “Accident” presented 4 times, once after practice_rec1.jpg, once after practice_rec2.jpg, once after practice_lit1.jpg, and once after practice_lit2.jpg. and the same for the other 3 words. Below is my trial.
Thank you in advance for your help,
IR
