User-created PackageFiles [30096]

This article applies to:
E-Prime 3.0
E-Prime 2.0

 
Detail
This sample demonstrates the ability to create PackageFiles - reusable blocks of script that can be added to E-Prime experiments via the PackageCall object - in E-Prime 3.0. The PackageFile in this sample can be used to automatically collect and display block performance statistics.
 
NOTE: If using E-Prime 2.0, this sample requires E-Prime 2.0.10.182 or later.
 
Abstract
This sample demonstrates the use of user-created PackageFiles in E-Prime 3.0. The 'BlockStats' PackageFile must be stored in a valid location as specified under the PackageFile Search Folders (i.e., available on the Package tab of the Tools > Options menu). If the PackageFile cannot be found, ensure that it has been extracted from the .zip file containing both the experiment and package files (e.g., .es3 and .epk3).
 
The attached experiment is a basic lexical decision task. There are two blocks of 5 trials. At the end of each block, the statistics collected are logged and then displayed to the participant. The statistics are reset between blocks, so that the statistics displayed apply only to the block that was just completed.
