Kind regards, Nina Subject IDs don't need to be random numbers, but obviously, if you're going to have multiple subjects complete your experiment, you'll want a way to distinguish between them, i.e. a different ID for each.

Yes, that is obvious. I meant to set up the subject IDs for participant 1 to 1 and the second one has the ID: 2, third one :3 .
