Hi @aha,
Thanks for your interest in OpenSesame and welcome to the forum! :)
A first question: will you be running your study online or locally?
Cheers,

Hi,
I'm trying to do the Guilford creativity test, in which the participants have 3 minutes to provide as many responses as possible to how to use everyday objects. The problem is that I cannot see the responses of the participants in the log file, so can someone please tell me how to record the participant's responses in the log file? and I will be running the experiment locally.
Hi Manju,
Please provide more info on your implementation. Without knowing what you did, I can't tell you what you did wrong.
Probably you want to use a text input item to collect the responses, how it will look in your particular case, I can't tell yet.

Dear Eduard
I appreciate your comment, and you are correct. I want to use the text input form to collect responses. I have defined all the common objects in the loop so that they can run sequentially in the text input form, but I don't know how to record multiple responses of participants to open-ended questions using the keyboard response item.
You have two options.
1) allow multiple inputs into the same text_input form
2) allow only one item per text input form, but run that form multiple times.
The first has the advantage that your experiment becomes super easy, and has the disadvantage that you have to deal with lists as variables. The second is bit more complex, but has exactly one input per cell. So the log file is somewhat neater. I attach the 2nd version (as I think it is somewhat more intuitive).
but I don't know how to record multiple responses of participants to open-ended questions using the keyboard response item.
You can't. The
keyboard_responseitem is only for single key strokes. You need thetext_inputform. Check the documentation for more info.Eduard
