Condition file

After entering your coding strings, go to the token menu in your token file and select Generate Factor Specifications. This will prompt the program to scan the factor specifications, so that it can actually identify the individual characters within the strings as valid factors.

Figure 11

After having generated the factor specifications, the factor specification box below your token file should be identical to the one in Figure 12. It must indicate the number of groups your data entails, including the respective partitioned legal and default values.

At this point, your fist step should be to implement an overall distributional analysis. For this purpose select No Recode under the token file's token menu. In this case, running the program on data that has not yet been recoded is quite unproblematic, as the provided data has been stripped from all irrelevant information beforehand.

The program will produce a condition file as illustrated in Figure 14.

You must now create a cell file by loading cells to memory in the cells menu. Be sure to have both variants of the dependent variable entered in the application value box then press OK. This will produce a cell file (cf. Figure 16) and a result file.
