Emotion dot probe - AB category 1 and AB category 2

Good morning,

I'm collating all my data from a few inquisit web experiments, one of them being the emotion dot probe task.

The user manual reports that the attention bias measures are labelled 'AB_Negative' and 'AB_Positive' in the data set. However, mine are labelled 'AB_Category1' and 'AB_Category2'.

Does anyone know which category corresponds to which attention bias measure (i.e. AB negative=category 1)?

Thanks in advance,
Hannah

This sounds like you gathered that data using one of the "generic" dot probe templates:

Regarding what category 1 and 2 represent in your case, you'll have to consult the actual script you used to collect the respective data.

Thanks Dave,

What should I look for in the script to understand the labels?

Well, look at the items in <item Category1Target_words> and <item Category2Target_words> for starters.
