mt_export_long
and mt_export_wide
can be used for exporting
mouse-tracking data from a mousetrap data object in long or wide format. If
desired, additional data (stored in data[[use2]]
) can be merged with
the trajectory data before export. mt_export_long
and
mt_export_wide
are wrapper functions for mt_reshape.
mt_export_long( data, use = "trajectories", use_variables = NULL, use2 = "data", use2_variables = NULL, ... ) mt_export_wide( data, use = "trajectories", use_variables = NULL, use2 = "data", use2_variables = NULL, ... )
data | a mousetrap data object created using one of the mt_import
functions (see mt_example for details). Alternatively, a trajectory
array can be provided directly (in this case |

use | a character string specifying which data should be exported. The
corresponding data are selected from data using |
use_variables | a character vector specifying which mouse-tracking variables should be exported. This corresponds to the labels of the trajectory array dimensions. If unspecified, all variables will be exported. |
use2 | an optional character string specifying where the other trial
data can be found. Defaults to "data" as |

mt_import_long for importing mouse-tracking data saved in a long format.
mt_import_wide for importing mouse-tracking data saved in a wide format.
