I copied the instructions you sent me almost verbatim.  If you create
a new account then you'll see how it works.

Ah, yes.  That is still unresolved.

What I do now is for each of the 9 cues, I assign a random appraisal.
Then I present the assigned cue/appraisal pairs in random order.  So
effectively there are infinite groups.

If you want to do an _exact_ replication then you have to give me the
order & etc for each of your 9 groups.  I can duplicate it, but isn't
random good enough?

Let me know what to do.

Yes.

All the extra links are there but none of them work.  If you click on
"Submit Cue", for example, then you are diverted to the Study #3 area.

Create a new account to try it.

Aren't we receiving informed consent during the account creation
process?

Fine.

I guess I'm an existentialist: It will take however long it takes,
but I'm also impatient.  ;-)
