Help!!!!!

[liwenna]

Hey Scarpais.

I'm a bit short in time, but you're definitely not the first person
seeking help with building a dot probe :p I would say.... start with
the info I posted here: http://groups.google.com/group/e-prime/browse_thread/thread/1e9419bc7226cf2b

E-mail me or post here if you get stuck. First get the general idea of
a dot-probe working. Start with only words or faces. Later you can
then create the second type of trials from the first and then we'll
sort things out with respect to presentation order etc.

Best of luck,

liw
