Beginner E-Prime Question

[Jennifer Stefanovski]

Hello, I am very new to E-Prime and trying to assist in developing a study. We have a set of 100 images uploaded into the image display, but need to have a fixation point occur in-between each image and struggling to do so. Does anyone have any suggestions of how to accomplish this? Thank you in advance!

[McFarlane, David]

As I understand it, you want each trial to consist of a a fixation point followed by an image. You could do this in your trial Procedure simply by having a TextDisplay or Slide for your fixation point, followed by an ImageDisplay or Slide for your image. (If it were me I would also add a brief blank screen at the end of each trial.)

The tutorials in the Getting Started Guide that comes with E-Prime would show you how to do this, and I highly recommend working through all the tutorials both there and in the Users Guide (if you can get your hands on that). I also highly recommend "The E-Primer" (www.amazon.com/Primer-Introduction-Psychological-Experiments-Prime%C2%AE/dp/9087283202).

If helpful, this is currently our outline. What would you recommend? So sorry in advance

Hi,

You just move your Fixation before ImageDisplay1.

By the way, you’ll also want to code your correct response as p and q, not P and Q, otherwise you’ll need to turn capslock on before the experiment.

Best,

Michiel

As described earlier, and as shown in the Getting Started Guide, your PicProc should contain two (or more) objects, one to present your fixation, and another following that to present your image (plus perhaps another object following the stimulus to present a brief blank screen).
