recovering randomization order (case29958)

[atran]

Hello Jason or Blair!

I recently ran an experiment where I used the WGR function and randomly presented 4 dependent variable tasks in randomized order. However, I also randomized, using the BGR, manipulations preceding them and now need to link the dependent variables to the manipulations after the fact. Is this possible? I will otherwise not be able to analyze my effects as I cannot determine which DV followed which manipulation!! Any help would be very much appreciated!!

Thanks for your time!

There is routine that keeps track of the actual presentation order of everything (e.g., of files and questionnaire items that are presented randomly). After completely running an experiment file in Medialab, you can find a log file called question_order.csv in the ByQuestionnaire data folder. The first row is the order of files (i.e., from the Experiment File) and the remaining rows are the question orders for each Questionnaire File in the order they actually occurred, with a time stamp written to verify the time at which each Questionnaire File was started.
