The next step is to create the three List objects to which the DesignList refers (i.e., AnimalList,
FruitList, NonWordList). Each list would necessarily include the ListStim attribute, which would
define the text strings to be used as the stimuli. AnimalList, FruitList, and NonWordList should be
created in the Unreferenced E-Objects folder.
At run-time, the ListType attribute value would be resolved to determine which List to use for the
block of trials, and the ListStim attribute value would be resolved from the List identified by
ListType.
It is worthwhile mentioning the change in the structure of the experiment that results from nesting.
Nested Lists are placed in the Structure view immediately subordinate to the List calling them.
Thus, in the Structure View below, the NonWordList is placed in the structure below the
DesignList.
