Example

Logical Restrictions

An experimental Behavioral Experimental Paradigm Condition requires something that plays the role of the instructions.

Comments

Instructions serve the function that they lay out what the response behaviors should be for any set of stimuli in a condition.

Formulated as a command. If a subject was instructed to read words aloud, the instruction is "Read" and the response type is "Speech"; rather than "Speak" as the instruction.
