I am working on a survey where I need to get answers from Pre IAT task to IAT task. How can I do that? Thanks.

We're talking about the standard IAT with 7 blocks as listed here, right?
https://www.soscisurvey.de/help/doku.php/en:create:questions:iat#blocks

Which data do you need for what, exactly?
by s193809 (110 points)
let me explain the task. I have 10 adjectives which are to be categorized. Participants drag and drop these adjectives into two columns as Charming or Non Charming personality traits. Now there are two parts of the task:
1. Need to select only top (n) characteristics from both columns (Charming and non charming).
2. Select audio of these top (n) characteristics to play in IAT task.

To summerize, task is to select top (n) traits, use those traits to select the audio of the respective trait(word) to be played that participant will hear and respond accodringly.

Any suggestion how it can be achieved?

Sounds like the assignment task (a different question type) might work better for your task.

  1. Need to select only top (n) characteristics from both columns (Charming and non charming).

What defines "top"?

  1. Select audio of these top (n) characteristics to play in IAT task.

That IAT does not support audio at the moment. May be that we can solve this with a bit JavaScript, but it will take a bit of additional work. The part of using certain stimuli for an IAT (for example by using placeholders, see manual) is also separate from the first part. Where do you want to start?

top means first n words from columns(sorted by participant).

So the first task is: You need a rating question with two columns? That could be accomplished by using a "normal" rating question, and add some CSS to modify the placement of the targets.
by s193809 (110 points)
No that part is done. Task is to utilize only first three words from each column to be used in IAT. How I can I do that?

Okay, how does your data currently look like? The debug information will be helpful.

Have you worked with placeholders, yet? If not, give the replace() function and the placeholder chapter a look, as well.

will do that. Now another hurdle I'm facing is use of audio stimuli in IAT. Is this possible? You mentioned above that IAT does not support audio at the moment?
My question is whether or not it's possible to use audio stimuli in IAT?
by SoSci Survey (305k points)
The question of possibility is most often a question of effort. By and large, you can use JavaScript to start an audio playing whenever you like. This "whenever" can be an IAT trial.

So, it will be possible, but it won't work "out of the box", but require a bit additional effort. And you shall plan some additional testing, for example to check if there are any latency issues if, for example, someone participates with a poor Internet connection. Preloading the audio files will be necessary to avoid issues there.
