Timed Responses
in OpenSesame
In my experiment there are three different response results but only one type of keyboard response. Additionally, people are able to have unlimited responses in every trial. I would like to separate the responses into bins per se. For example, the participant only hits the space bar as a correct and accepted response but can do this a countless amount of times. These responses could either be correct, somewhat-correct, or incorrect based on time of responding (using the spacebar). Would this be done by using the keyboard_response item?

Hi @KerAnn ,
Are you running your experiment online or locally?
Also, when does a trial end? You say that participants can press space bar for a countless number of times, but I assume that there is some type of timeout then?

Hi @Ivanderlinden, thanks for your questions!
The experiment will be ran fully online as of right now. The trials end at three different times (this is a timing study). The trials end at 4s, 8s, and 16s (which is defined using the block_loop items) and within these confounds the participants can hit the spacebar as many times as they desire.
Thank you,

Hi @KerAnn ,
I think you could do the following:
I attached an example experiment. Hope this helps!
