Memory recall task

  Hi Jess,

  Could I use text input for the participant's response and if so how does the logger work with this type of input?

  The first option that comes to mind is to use a form_text_input item to let participants freely enter their response. Then you can specify the name of a variable, say memory_response , and then the logger will simply log the response under that name.

  Does that clear things up?

  Cheers!

  Thanks for this question and response as I am working on a similar thing.

  I am wondering if this could be adapted such that you apply code to determine if the participant input response is correct and if it is create a score of the total correct responses.

  I am assuming that you would use code in an inline script incorporating an If statement with conditions??

  Hi Jarrod,

  You can make use of the responses object. Say that the form saves the response as memory_response and you have defined the correct response as correct_response , then the following script should do the trick:

  responses.add(
      response=var.memory_response,
      correct=1 if var.memory_response == var.correct_response else 0
  )
  

  This should be in the Run phase of an inline_script .
