The task doesn't run correctly anymore

Hello !

I created a stroop task with OpenSesame (and coroutines) and used it many time without problem.

Now, the task doesn't work correctly : in the second block, the task run but after 8 stimuli, stop to present stimuli. I have the fixation mark, and a black screen without the stimuli. If I let the task run, the fixation mark stay all the time on the screen.

I cannot quit the task with the "esc" key, or nothing else. After forcing to quit the program, the main screen send the feedback the task was successfully complete...

I really have no idea about the error. I use the same computer, the same task.

I try to uninstall and unstall again OpenSesame, and to use the compatility mode for Windows.

Do you have an idea to fix it, and use this task ?

Thank you very much for your answer !

  • Hi Céline,

    When did you last run your experiment without any problems? Did anything change since then? Based on the current information I cannot deduce what's causing your problem.

    Cheers,

  • Hi Joshua,

    Thank you very much for your quick answer.

    The last time I ran the task was in may. The only thing that changed was to "upgrade" for Windows 10. This is the same task, I change nothing in, and the same computer.

    First, I try the task with the same version of OpenSesame. Now this is the new one but the error still occurs.

    Sincerly,

  • Further information :

    It seems the problem occurs when the task run from loop 1 to second loop.

    I tried to change the position of the different loops.

    The loop #2, with a problem, run correctly when it comes in first position in the task (just after the instructions). And the problem occurs then with the second loop...

    I hope this info can give you a cue !

    Thank you very much for your help.

    Sincerly,

    Céline

  • Hi Celine,

    Would you mind uploading the experiment?

  • Hi Eduard,

    Thank you very much for your answer.

    I cannot upload the expe. I tried to remove much loops (perhaps it was too heavy), but no, failled too.

    I am searching another way to upload the expe.

    Cheers,

  • Hi !

    I was not able to fix the problem in this task, so I decided to create a new one, and it runs correctly.

    Thank you very much for your attention and your answers.

    Cheers,

  • Good to hear Celine!

    Sorry for not having come back to you earlier. On an initial attempt, I couldn't reproduce the error, but then I simply forgot...
