The launch page is the where you send participants to run your experiment. You can customize the launch page by adding a title and description.
10) Specify the consent form.

11) Configure how participant identifiers and groups are assigned.
By default, Inquisit assigns random numbers to each participant. Alternatively, participants can enter their subject ids (UserEntered), or they can be pre-assigned an id through a custom unique link (QueryParameter).
If your experiment has between-group variables (e.g., counterbalancing, treatment vs control), specify the number of groups and whether they are assigned randomly, sequentially, or through the links sent out to each participant.
12) Configure participant logging.
You can enable participant logging, and specify whether ip addresses are logged. We recommed enabling logs to help track participants' progress, and disabling ip addresses for privacy.
13) Specify your finish page.
You can redirect participants to another web page after they have finished the experiment. The default page thanks them for participating and gives instructions for uininstalling Inquisit.
14) Save and close your experiment.
The main experiments page now shows your new experiment in the list..
15) Launch your experiment.
Click the Launch Page link for your experiment, and follow instructions for installing the Inquisit Player and starting the experiment.
