Collect multiple mouse responses

edited November 2016 in OpenSesame

Hello,

I'm trying to make an experiment in which a participant listens to an excerpt of music and rates the perceived and experienced musical emotion. Each trial should include a playback button (which plays the excerpt as many times as a participant likes), an affect grid (in which a participant right clicks for a perceived emotion rating and left clicks for an experienced emotion rating), and a preview of the arousal-valence numerical values. The trial screen should look somewhat like the picture attached. Once a participant is happy with his ratings, he or she submits them by pressing space and proceeds to the next excerpt.

I'm extraordinarily bad at programming. So far, I've managed to write a nasty piece of code which works with the one huge exception that only a single mouse click is functional. So a participant can play the excerpt or submit one of the ratings but cannot do all of those actions... Is there a way to collect multiple mouse responses with a single trial?

Thanks!

  • Hi,

    That is possible, you simply have to add multiple mouse responses to the sequence, and make sure participants always you the right order of actions. Alternatively, you can also make something along the lines of forms (all checkbox like clicks in the figure, and add a OK button in the bottom to proceed, which is the only way to proceed).

    Let us know if you need help with the implementation.
