Analysing string data

[David Vinson]

Hi Anja,

E-DataAid doesn't like string data in the "Data" field but you should be 
able to trick it into doing what you want:  dragging it into the Rows 
field and selecting a numeric but uninteresting value (e.g. Session) for 
the Data field.

So here for example you could just have these three fields in Rows:
Subject
TargetStimulus
TranslationResponse

And this one field in Data:
Session:Mean

The first three columns of the output should give you what you're 
looking for.

hope this helps!
