Hi, I'm running a priming study and wanting to present a letter string as a prime. I'd like to have Inquisit select one letter string from a set and then present this letter string throughout the entire experiment.
In the past I've done this in a very inefficient way -- by specifying a <text> for each letter string. e.g.
<text base1> / numitems = 18 / items = baseline1 / select = noreplace </text>
<item baseline1> / 1 = "RRR" / 2 = "RRR" / 3 = "RRR" / 4 = "RRR" / 5 = "RRR" / 6 = "RRR" / 7 = "RRR" / 8 = "RRR" / 9 = "RRR" / 10 = "RRR" / 11 = "RRR" / 12 = "RRR" / 13 = "RRR" / 14 = "RRR" / 15 = "RRR" / 16 = "RRR" / 17 = "RRR" / 18 = "RRR" </item>
<text base2> / numitems = 18 / items = baseline2 / select = noreplace </text>
<item baseline2> / 1 = "GGG" / 2 = "GGG" / 3 = "GGG" / 4 = "GGG" / 5 = "GGG" / 6 = "GGG" / 7 = "GGG" / 8 = "GGG" / 9 = "GGG" / 10 = "GGG" / 11 = "GGG" / 12 = "GGG" / 13 = "GGG" / 14 = "GGG" / 15 = "GGG" / 16 = "GGG" / 17 = "GGG" / 18 = "GGG" </item>
<text base3> / numitems = 18 / items = baseline3 / select = noreplace </text>
<item wpos_baselineb> / 1 = "MMM" / 2 = "MMM" / 3 = "MMM" / 4 = "MMM" / 5 = "MMM" / 6 = "MMM" / 7 = "MMM" / 8 = "MMM" / 9 = "MMM" / 10 = "MMM" / 11 = "MMM" / 12 = "MMM" / 13 = "MMM" / 14 = "MMM" / 15 = "MMM" / 16 = "MMM" / 17 = "MMM" / 18 = "MMM" </item>
<text base4> / numitems = 18 / items = baseline4 / select = noreplace </text>
<item baseline4> / 1 = "BBB" / 2 = "BBB" / 3 = "BBB" / 4 = "BBB" / 5 = "BBB" / 6 = "BBB" / 7 = "BBB" / 8 = "BBB" / 9 = "BBB" / 10 = "BBB" / 11 = "BBB" / 12 = "BBB" / 13 = "BBB" / 14 = "BBB" / 15 = "BBB" / 16 = "BBB" / 17 = "BBB" / 18 = "BBB" </item>
How can I do it so that Inquisit chooses from a set that contains the four letter strings from above?
