Mark & Anne Meeting Aug 20: Week of Frustration version

- Went into long-winded explanation of recent E-Prime problems with script not generating

- Hot or Not:
- Stop testing now till students return
- For now, will not use people who indicated 4, 5, or 6 on the attractiveness scale because everyone is motivationally relevant to them
- will have a look at the data with Angele and show her how to analyse it

- Value Learning:
- having mega trouble getting Vision Egg to talk to my Mac
- have just tested the program using Asma's laptop, though, and the problem appears to be the code. Will speak to Christian
- New plan: keep working on Python, but also make a version in E-Prime just for the preliminary stuff
- 10 images per category (3 categories), each image seen 5 times each in learning
- testing will use both previously-seen and novel images
- ratings of 30 old and 30 novel images

- SD Review:
- going to meet with Ben next week to get this thing whipped into shape
- plan is to have a super detailed outline ready for Thursday so we all know exactly what we are saying

To do:
- brainstorm three ideas for NSERC
- start VL E-Prime program
- meet with Ben re: SD review
- email Jan at Stonehenge to ask about testing
- try to get Python stuff working (try on Windows side of testing Macs?)
