Hello
I'm trying to program a basic lexical decision task ("word" vs. "non-word"). Is there a way I can have those categories as a reminder on the top corners of the screen while participants are running through the trials?

Yes. You can set up <text> elements representing your labels and display them via the <block>s' /bgstim attributes. You need to make sure that the screen area inhabited by those <text> elements never gets overwritten by any other stimuli during the course of the <block>; the labels will not be re-drawn to the screen.

Hi Dave,
Here is what I have entered in my <text>:

<text Nonword>
/ items = Non-word
</text>

<text Word>
/ items = Word
</text>

And here is what I have entered in my <block>:

<block lexicalDecisionTask>
/ trials = [1=instructions; 2-85=noreplace(ldtcategory, ldtneutral, ldtnonword)]
</block>

<block lexicalDecisionTaskPractice>
/ trials = [1=instructions; 2-7=noreplace(ldtneutralPractice, ldtnonwordPractice)]
</block>

What would I need to add to my block to have "Word" show up on the top left of the screen and "Non-Word" show up on the top right of the screen. Thanks!
