Tags

In SuperLab, you can create a tag set and add tags to it. For example, a “Congruency” tag set can contain two tags, “Congruent” and “Incongruent”.

The main purpose of tags is to “describe” a trial or stimulus list item and help you with the data analysis. Each tag set that you create adds a column to the collected data file. 

Plan Carefully

Tip: plan carefully. using different lists might make more sense.

Applying Tags

Creating tag sets is straightforward:

Tags can be applied to trials and/or stimulus lists

letter was presented, orientation (forward or backward), direction of rotation (clockwise or

counterclockwise), and angle that it was presented at.

To accomplish this, we create four tag sets and add relevant tags to them (click on Experiment

menu then Tag Sets...):

Once the tag sets are created, the next step is to actually tag the trials or stimulus list items.

This is done in the Tags tab of either the Trial Editor or Stimulus List Editor.

The four tag sets that were created will result in four additional columns (fields) being added

to the data file. When the participant responds, a row gets added to the data file and SuperLab

will save the tags that you have applied to that trial or stimulus list item.

Taking time to tag your trials can be helpful when analyzing your data.
