Hi everybody,


I wish to run a dot probe task and emotional stroop task. In addition to words, I wish to use symbols from MS word as stimuli in inquisit.


However, I realized a lot of symbols turn up as "?". Some symbols I wish to use include, "Y hat", "s square", "sigma".



I thought about inserting them as image stimuli but that would only work for the dot probe task. I would not be able to assign colors to them in the emotional stroop task. Any ideas?
