    Keeping randomized stimuli and questions together

    [edited from support emails]

    We are working on a project which involves presenting images on a screen, one at a time, for recognition. We want participants to do a fill-in-the-blank response on the following page, so the response is not collected on the same page in which the image appears. The images are presented randomly. The problem we are facing is that the program does present the images randomly but does not collect the data associated with the particular image.

    Is there any way we can tie the response to the particular stimulus?

    If you assign each image and associated question the same BGR value then they will be treated as a group. All groups will be kept together and just the *order* of the groups will be random. That way you will always know what picture went with which question in your data file.
