[open] Dual Task
I was wondering if someone could help with programming a dual task in OpenSesame. What we want, is a dualtask in which on the one hand words are being read aloud in a random order (we plan to record .wav files ourselves, one for each word), and participants have to type as many words as they can at the same time. The words they have to type will have to appear on the screen and disappear once they have typed a word. Also, what they type should appear on the screen.
So this is to happen:
- Words presented auditory at a specified rate (one per x seconds)
- Words presented visually at the rate with which a participant can type them
- What the participant types should also appear on-screen
Can OpenSesame make this paralleltask?
You would really help us out, if you could answer this!

Hi,
Yes, you can certainly implement this task in OpenSesame. I would recommend first walking through some of the tutorials to familiarize yourself with OpenSesame:
Since, given your task, you will probably need to use a bit of scripting, I would also take a look at some of the entry-level Python tutorials:
If you have more specific questions, feel free to post them here.
Cheers,
