[open] key responses

edited November 2015 in OpenSesame

Hello!

I would like to use opensesame for my experiment. It looks like user friendly, so i have watched tutorial and installed on my laptop (win 8). Program starts normallly, i can edit tools, add stimuli and so, but when i run experiment, key responses don´t work. Only if i set "timeout", it continues from instruction to the next item automaticly. (when i try to exit experiment, escape key and Q are working.) I

thank you very much for your time.

    Hi,

    Could you provide me the structure of your experiment? (e.g. sketchpad, keyboard_response, sketchpad). With their relative durations, and also everything you entered in the keyboard_response.

    Cheers,

    Josh

    Hi Josh

    it is problematic from the beginning. i cant get through the first instruction (sketchpad).
    next is keyboard_response( set timeout "infinite"
    flush "yes"
    duration "keypress"
    description "Collects keyboard responses"
    allowed_responses "SPACE")
    sequence:
    text display, keyboard response;
    fixation dot, sketchpad, keyboard response, (4times).
    for responses i set:
    timeout 5000
    flush "yes"
    duration "keypress"
    description "Collects keyboard responses"
    correct_response "S"
    allowed_responses "S;L"

    have a nice day

    Hi,

    What did you set as duration for the instruction sketchpad? If you don't need reaction times or the actual response to the instruction, you don't have to add a keyboard_response after it. Aside from the that, does your sequence work fine? You specified the allowed_response to be upper case S and Ls. So you would have to respond with upper case keys. I can't reproduce the error and from how I understand your structure, it should be fine. So that's a bit confusing.
