Hi Katrina,

To the best of our knowledge, nothing has changed.

Did you use the php server option? Can you send along a link to where the IAT used to run? Maybe we will see an informative error message when trying to load that page.

Thanks,

Yoav

Hi!
A few months ago I set up the IAT for a research project at school. It worked up until this week.
My research project background:
First, my participants took a survey on google forms, then followed a link to the website. I had 68 participants take my survey, but the IAT only worked for the first 14. Last Friday, it was working, but this week it hasn't been. All of my participants showed a loading screen.

I hosted it on 000webhost.com, and it is a free service. Could the problem be that I had too many participants on the site? I did try to upload all of my files onto other websites, but they didn't work either.

There might be a problem with my files, and I might have accidentally edited them. I previously removed all the demographic questions and inserted a question to input the user's names. That worked perfectly, and I was able to download the data. If I did accidentally edit them, how would I know what to fix?
Now, all it shows is a loading screen. I have attached an image here. The link is also in the image.

Hi Katrina,

It seems that you partially updated your index.html file.

It is set up for use with v0.3 (very good!)

But uses the v0.1 link (not so good).

You should reset your index.html with the original (from https://github.com/minnojs/simple-minno-server).

best,

Elad

Hi Katrina,

Thanks for using minno.js.

It could be that you ran out of storage or had too much visitors to your hosted website:

or it could be that something went wrong following your edits.

I would first check the storage used and the sample size you've reached (the sample size of started sessions). Maybe this website marks the storage you used so far and the N of visitors. Try to search for that.

Then, I would check if the issue is with your files or with your server, by uploading the demonstration code to your server and trying to run that code, instead of your code. if this works then the problem is with the edits you made. Please share your code with us so we could review it and try to find the issues, if you're not sure what went wrong. Did you use git/github to upload the files to your server? if you did, then you can simply revert to the previous version that worked.

Best,

Mayan

Hi Dr. Navon,

(Sorry, I didn't realize you were a doctoral student!) Right after I sent that email, I changed the index.html code and my program worked!

Thank you for your help,

Katrina

Hi Mayan,

Thank you so much for your help! We tried using the original code provided by Github, and that showed the same loading screen. We also tried different hosting sites and even hosted it locally but it didn't work. I am going to try the original files again and see if anything changed.

Thanks,

Katrina

Hi!!,

I´m applying to IAT (the example code black/white race) for my final project of my career and i also hosted on 000webhost.com. I have a question about the test result interpretations.

I have the results in a CSV archive but when interpreting the results, I don't know how calculate the milliseconds, I would like to know how is the process or the algorithm on which they are based. If you could indicate me where can I find that information I would appreciate it.

I hope you could help me.
Greetings.

Hi Nicole,

Are you referring to the interpretation of the D score in the csv output? If so, it is based on the D score algorithm suggested in this paper.

Let us know if you have further questions.

Best,

Mayan

Just a correction: The D score computed by the extension and saved in the csv is used by Project Implicit's website, internally, for uninteresting reasons, but it is DOES NOT use exactly the recommended scoring algorithm. It is strongly recommended to compute your own D score from your data. Yoav

Hi,

I am working with single-category IAT and have computed the raw data, but I am confused about how to measure the d score for ST-IAT as I have 5 blocks.
