Hello,
I have a question regarding the order of the blocks. With seven blocks, blocks 1, 2, and 5 are practice and a person just has either attributes or targets to match it to the proper category. The blocks 3&4 can be either compatible or incompatible, same with 6&7.
My question is: does the order matter? Does it matter what blocks go first? Compatible or incompatible?
I have only found information that for some subjects blocks 1, 3 & 4 are switched with blocks 5, 6 & & (Greenwald, Nosek, and Banaji, 2003). It is done so to reduce the effect of order. My question is: do I do that manually? Or does the program do it on its own?
If it has to be done manually, is there any research regarding the effect of order in the IAT? I was trying to find something but unfortunately, I haven't found anything.
I will be forever grateful for some answers!!
