I wanted to check that @lindeloev’s “setting rows dynamically” solution worked (that’s how it was designed but I don’t think this is often tested). It did!
So here’s an example experiment file showing it in action. Put these 3 files together in a folder and run the blockSubset experiment. A couple of notes:
- the entries in the blocks file are
'0:5
,'5:10
,'10:15
and note the'
just at the beginning of each one. That tells Excel to treat this as a string and not be clever and convert it into a date/time. For excel a string is indicated by just one'
at the beginning of the cell. - I set up this to run a single repeat of each trial. The trials within the blocks I made random and the blocks I made sequential (so you get 1-5 shuffled, then 5-10 shuffled etc)
