logging every keyboard response

mockerybird

Hi,

I might have a pretty obvious question: in the variable list I have a column for correct_response, where I define 3 different responses, eg. A, G, and L. But I would like to see as well, which button the participant chose. So I do not only want to record whether it was correct or not, but if it was not correct, then what exactly the answer was. Does anyone have a good idea for that?

Thanks a lot,
Viola

Hi Viola,

If you record your key responses with a keyboard_item and a logger, this actual key that was pressed is recorded automatically (unless you tell Opensesame explicitly not to do so). In the logfile, you should be able to find the key by looking for the variable called response_keyboard_response (or whatever you have called your keyboard_response item)
