  Hi Daniel,

  My goal is to have only one variable in the logger file that shows if the participant chose the right answer or not. Do you have any ideas how I could get this done? Any help is appreciated

  You would need to add a simple inline_script after the form, that recodes the variables so that there is a single variable that contains the name of the emotion that has been selected. For example like so:

  # A list of all emotions, which should correspond to
  # the variables in the form.
  emotions = ['fearful', 'surprised',
      'angry', 'disgusted',
      'contemptuous', 'sad',
      'sad']
  
  # Walk through all emotions, and set the variable
  # `emotion_response` to the name of the emotion
  # variable that has been set to yes.
  for emotion in emotions:
      if self.get(emotion) == 'yes':
          exp.set('emotion_response', emotion)
  

  Alternatively, you could use checkbox widgets instead of buttons. Then you wouldn't need to recode at all:

  set margins "50;100;50;100"
  set rows "1;1;1;1;1;1;1"
  set spacing "25"
  set description "A generic form plug-in"
  set cols "1;1"
  widget 1 0 1 1 checkbox click_accepts="yes" text="Angst" var="emotion_response"
  widget 1 1 1 1 checkbox click_accepts="yes" text="Ueberraschung" var="emotion_response"
  widget 1 2 1 1 checkbox click_accepts="yes" text="Aerger" var="emotion_response"
  widget 1 3 1 1 checkbox click_accepts="yes" text="Ekel" var="emotion_response"
  widget 1 4 1 1 checkbox click_accepts="yes" text="Verachtung" var="emotion_response"
  widget 1 5 1 1 checkbox click_accepts="yes" text="Trauer" var="emotion_response"
  widget 1 6 1 1 checkbox click_accepts="yes" text="Freude" var="emotion_response"
  

  Cheers!
