Rachel,

   Those more experienced with R than am I will probably offer their
thoughts, too.

   It looks to me that you want counts of various parameters for each
participant, and perhaps groups of participants. When I read this I see SQL
SELECT count() statements on database tables, not descriptive or explanatory
statistical results.

   Not knowing your computer's OS or whether there is a relational database
magagement system installed I can't offer specific suggestions. A database
would provide counts of each *Probe as well as combinations. If you want to
go that route contact me off the mail list and I'll suggest mail lists for
help if you use Microsoft products as I know only PostgreSQL and SQLite.
