Transition cards for between-subjects designs serve as a crucial tool in facilitating the smooth progression of participants from one condition to another in experimental research. These cards typically outline key instructions, objectives, or reminders that help sustain clarity and focus among participants during transitions. For instance, a card may instruct participants to take a brief moment to reflect on their previous task before moving on to the next, ensuring that they remain engaged and mentally prepared. Moreover, using transition cards can minimise the cognitive load on participants, allowing for a more accurate assessment of each subject's responses across different conditions. By providing clear and concise prompts, transition cards contribute to the overall integrity and reliability of the study’s findings while enhancing the participant experience.
