@[osf](h8u52) *Note the lingo: Words with initial capital letters are Qualtrics terms, not experimental terms. For example, Block in Qualtrics refers to a different concept from the ‘block’ that psychologists talk about.* These R scripts prepare your stimuli for batch importing to Qualtrics. Specifically, it does these things for you: 1. Tag each stimuli item with a Block tag and a Question tag. This enables Qualtrics to put each of your item in a separate Block (which allows for order randomization) and add each item as a new Question inside the Block. 2. Name each Block (and the Question inside) with the corresponding stimuli coding. 3. Tag each item with the desired Question tag (multiple choice or text entry). This lets Qualtrics know what Question type should be assigned to your stimuli. 4. Add the desired answer field for each Question. Currently, the scripts can handle these type of questions/studies : 1. **Multiple choice with different options**: For studies that have different options based on each stimulus. For example, if you ask participants to choose the referent of a pronoun, following one sentence like “Justin was mad at Josh because he …” the choice options are Justin and Josh, but following a different sentence the choices are two other names. 2. **Multiple choice with the same option**: For studies that have the same option for all the stimuli, such as Likert rating (aka multiple choice with options 1, 2, 3, …) and grammaticality judgment. 3. **Text entry**: For open-ended responses, such as sentence completion studies etc.. Note that the script only works for building surveys in English, due to Qualtrics' inability to read Unicode input files. Also note that it cannot do everything you need to build your complete study and you’ll still need to do some manual work. Currently, randomizing the order of stimuli and making questions as Force Response can only be done by hand, since Qualtrics does not have options to batch these things. However, the scripts should save you a ton of tedious copy/past job; the goal is to automate as much as possible and let you do the rest (e.g., set up practice session, randomize as you need, etc.). For a complete list of current batch-upload options, see Qualtrics' guide: https://www.qualtrics.com/support/survey-platform/survey-module/survey-tools/import-and-export-surveys/
