issue when defining customized labels in csv file #133

Closed dgj2702 closed 4 years ago

dgj2702 commented 4 years ago

Background: I am using scale labels which are not numerical but categorical (e.g., articles for German, such as the seven options 'den, die, das, einen, eine, ein, [leer lassen]'). I have defined a fourth column for customized labels (e.g., 'dem, der, das, einem, einer, ein, [leer lassen]') in my stimuli spreadsheet to upload to LRex.

A couple of issues:

  1. It appears it is necessary to define custom labels for all cells, even if the customized labels are identical to the globally defined labels (based on memory from a few nights ago, so there may be errors in my description -- sorry, I don't want to change the settings now to replicate since I would like to run the experiment as it currently is). What I would expect (could be just me though): all empty cells in the customized labels column will use the globally-defined values, and only the cells with an entry will be different from the global values.

  2. More importantly, there may be a bug: the customized labels did not appear to be correctly presented for the relevant stimuli; rather, the globally defined labels were always presented. I believe I tried with both "Question 1 question column" and "Question 1 scale column" -- I definitely tried the latter -- and it did not work. What I would expect: the customized labels in the fourth column will be presented to participants.

Just FYI: I defined the custom labels within the LRex interface (there were not many) and the presentation of the labels was as expected; see however https://github.com/2e2a/l-rex/issues/131 for an issue related to the values reported in the results file.

Thanks for submitting the issue.

  1. This is a bug. I'll take a look into it.
