Additive rt logging?!
Dear community,
I designed a self-paced reading experiment with a context sentence, two critical sentences and one question for each critical sentence. I want to log the accuracy of the answers as well as the reading time for each sentence. Therefore I split the practice from the actual experimental part. In the practice I want to log the reading time (see first screenshot below), in the experimental part the accuracy of the question answers (see second screenshot below).


Unfortunately, the rt isn't logged correctly in the logfile of the practice part. It seems like it adds the rt's together for each trial. Is there a way to reset the rt before each logged variable? We tried so by adding a reset item, delete keyboard responses for the questions and more but nothing helped. I attached the logfile for better understanding.
Any help is grately appreciated!
Cheers,
Sophie

I will also attach the two scripts in case anyone wants to take a direct look into the source
Nevermind, I found the mistake!
I copied a linked keyboard response for the sentences so the rt times were added together in the logfile.
