Thank you for sharing this information. I am looking at the file and hopefully I can built up my experiment. However, I cannot run this oddball because it is looking for the scanner.

There is a place that shares some E-prime scripts: http://step.psy.cmu.edu/scripts/

Nice - Here is a visual oddball task I programmed with e-prime 1.2 - http://gsite.univ-provence.fr/gsite/Local/lpc/dir/dufau/share/visual_oddball_sample.es

Thank you so much. I can run it fine. I shall learn from you how to programme my experiment. Probably I have to acknowledge your help, if you provide me with the details. :) Thank you again.

<p>I want to set up an experiment in which there are 3 types of emotional stimuli (A, B, C). A and C would have a 1% recurrence probability, for rare and unexpected stimuli. Is there any sample of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oddball_paradigm" rel="nofollow">oddball paradigm</a> for E-Prime? </p>

(Asked by: username_0 on 2013-07-17)

I want to set up an experiment in which there are 3 types of emotional stimuli (A, B, C). A and C would have a 1% recurrence probability, for rare and unexpected stimuli. Is there any sample of [oddball paradigm](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oddball_paradigm) for E-Prime?
