Hi
I plan to run a study with categorization task.

Please refer to the followings.
<Introduction>
In this study, we are interested in how consumers group things. Please take a look at the items involved in two scenarios and place them into groups by writing the items that belong together next to each other on the blank space provided, and then categorize the items that belong in the same group. Please make sure to include every item, even if you would not use it in reality. Additionally, please do not overlap, that is, place each item in only one group.

Scenario 1. Camping
Imagine that you are going on a camping trip and have decided to take the following items with you. Take a look at the following items and place them into groups by writing the items together, that you think belong together. Write the items, which you think fall together but into different group. (These instructions would change depending on procedure to be followed in Media Lab). Make sure to include every item, even if you would not use it in reality. Additionally, please do not overlap, that is, place each item in only one group. You may create as many or as few groups as you think would be sufficient.
