Regarding the order of arguments in the expand.grid function.

Dear @lkumle ,

I truly appreciate your paper and GitHub code—they have greatly contributed to my research. Thank you sincerely.

I have a quick question for clarification.
In the following line of code:

analyses_power_tutorial/Scenario 3/Analysis_Scenario3.R

Line 33 in fa1b858

artificial_data <- expand.grid(Subject = (1:20), Word = (1:100))

Shouldn't the order of Subject and Word be reversed?

In fact, in your paper, the following line is written (and I think this is correct):

artificial_data <- expand.grid(Word = (1:100), Subject = (1:20))

because the following rep should be applied to Subject, not to Word.

artificial_data["Frequency"] <- rep(frequency_ratings, 20)

However, in the GitHub code and in Scenario 3, Subject appears first in the argument list.

I mentioned earlier that the code in your paper appears to be correct. However, there seems to be something puzzling in Figure 5. For the same Word = 1, the Frequency values vary. Shouldn't the Frequency be fixed for each individual word?

I apologize if I’m misunderstanding something.

Best regards,
Daiichiro

Dear Daiichiro,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention! You are correct, there seems to be an error in the order of arguments in the GitHub Code and Notebook for Scenario 3. We are looking into it at the moment and will make sure to correct it.

Best wishes,
Levi
