Using accuracy feedback from a previous block

Tina

Hi!

I have a study where I want to give participants feedback about accuracy from the first block but not until after they've completed the second block. The second block is just ratings so there are no right or wrong answers. However, in the log file the responses still count towards the total accuracy %, which means they are all treated as inaccurate, drawing down the actual accuracy from the first block. Is there a way around this?

Thank you and best regards,

Tina

Hi Tina,

you could place an inline_script after your first block were you 'store' the accuracy.

Just create a new variable:

For instance:

var.acc_block1 = var.total_accuracy

If var.total_accuracy is changed afterwards in block 2, this should not influence your new var.acc_block1.

So you may draw from the new variable in your feedback.

Does this make sense?

Hi,

Yes, that makes sense and works like a charm! Thank you for the solution, and for introducing me to my first inline_script :-)
