Trouble logging response times in high school psychology experiment

jmcclintock

Hello all, new to this board, and new to OS. I'm working with a high school class on a variation of the classic Trolley Problem, and we are having some difficulty getting response times to log properly. We have tried to log the variables response_time and average_response_time, but get a variety of weird results... response times are logged as zero, or sometimes they go down over the course of the experiment. Strangely, we seem to get different outcomes based on the computer we use, even though the code is identical.

Any tips from those with more experience would be much appreciated!

Hi,

Without more details on the actual implementation it is hard to help you. Could you share your code/experiment? Normally, the results should not be super different depending on the pc that is used.

So please, upload your experiment, and I can try to better help you.
