Record response_time when Mouse is being moved not clicked

Antpt

Hi everyone,

I'm creating an experiment in which geometrical forms will be presented on different pictures with different location. The subject task will be to press a key on the keyboard when a square is presented and to click on the target when a circle is presented

For the mouse condition, I want to record Time_response when the target is being clicked but also when the mouse is being moved (when the motor program is being initiated) so the response-time won't be dependant of the distance between mouse and target.

So, I set the Mouse pos :

souris = Mouse()

souris.set_pos(pos=(0,0))

I want to get the time response when the pos becomes different from(0,0)

I hope I'm clear..

Thank u for responses !

Best Regards

Pascal

Hi,

if you use the mousetrap_response item to collect the mouse response, you can use it to reset the mouse to the specified position. It also automatically computes the initiation_time variable, which is the time until any movement was initiated (which is I think the time you are interested in).

Best,

Pascal

Hi Pascal,

Thank u for your quick answer

I don't have mousetrap and I decided to install it.

I followed the instructions and I wrote in the debug window :

import pip

pip.main(['install', 'https://github.com/PascalKieslich/mousetrap-os/archive/master.zip'])

But I can't install it because of my old version of pip I guess :

You are using pip version 9.0.1, however version 19.0.3 is available.

You should consider upgrading via the 'python -m pip install --upgrade pip' command.

But when I tap the command : python -m pip install --upgrade pip

I have this message : NameError: name 'python' is not defined

What should I do ?

Thank u

Antpt

How can I upgrade my pip from OpenSesame ?

Pascal

The message you are posting is not an error but a warning, because OpenSesame is using an old version of pip. If you have run the commands specified above, you simply need to restart OpenSesame and the mousetrap items should be present. If not, could you post the complete message you get after running the commands?

Hmm this is weird.

I just checked the installation procedure using OpenSesame 3.2.7 under Windows 7 and Windows 10 and it worked for me.

I run OpenSesame as an administrator and then paste the following two lines in the debug window

import pip
pip.main(['install', 'https://github.com/PascalKieslich/mousetrap-os/archive/master.zip'])

The resulting message is:

Which version of OpenSesame and which operating system are you using?

Antpt

Indeed it's weird..

I'm using Opensesame 3.2.7 (python 3.6.4) as well and my Os is windows 10 64bits. I already tried to reinstall OpenSesame but it still doesn't work.

Antpt

Update !

I installed the 32 bits version and.. It works !

Don't know why

Thank u for your help,

I'll come back to you if I have questions about the use of mousetrack

Best regards !
