    advanced help needed for data analysis

    Hi,

    I'm fairly new to excel and am having some trouble with some data I've collected. The data is from an attention experiment, and in order to analyse it I need to identify participants correct responses.

    At the moment the output gives me a number for the stimuli shown in degress (360, 270, 180 and 90), and a column with the participants response (1,2,3 or 4). I need to find a way to identify whether their response matched the orientation they saw, with 1 being 360, 2 being 180, 3 being 270, 4 being 90. I then need another column to identify whether this was correct with a 1 for correct and 0 for incorrect.

    Can anybody please help??

    Here is something that you can try

    =INDEX({360,180,270,90},MATCH(A1,{1,2,3,4}))

    A
    B
    1
    4
    90
    2
    2
    180
    3
    1
    360
    4
    3
    270



    For Correct/Incorrect answers something like this

    **Commas may need to be replaced with ; in your region

    =IF(A5="Correct",1,0)

    Change cell references as need it.

    As I understand your problem, you want to identify where the response matched the orientation.
