@AcademicNeil I suppose using randomizer inside randomizer in survey flow you can try.

Thanks Rock for the suggestion. Could you perhaps give a little more detail please? When I use the randomizer in the survey flow, it seems to randomly select a whole block rather than one random question from a block.



I've been messing around to see what I can do. The best I've got so far is

Survey flow - block A, block B, block A, block B

and then within block randomiser/ present only 1 of the total questions.



However, while this does give me ABAB, the randomised question could be repeated, i.e. you could have AQ1, BQ5, AQ1, BQ3, which is not what I want. I want each question to be asked only once.



Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

@AcademicNeil - Did you end up finding a response to this query? I'm looking to solve a similar problem as well.



Thanks a lot,

Jonty

Hi Jonty,



I'm afraid not. If you find a solution, please post it here.

AcademicNeil I am working on a similar problem. I have three categories of images and want to randomly present them from each category without repetition. The closest I can get so far is to present each block randomly, with the order of blocks random.
Did you find a solution?

Hi all,

No, I never did find a solution to what seems to be a relatively straightforward experimental design task. I tried out Psychopy recently, and I have to say, it was so much quicker and easier to use. I didn't actually try and sort out this randomiser problem in Psychopy, but my guess is it would be a bit easier on that platform. Good luck everyone!
