Is there any way to change the text on the "blockfeedback" screen which shows after a block of trials?
I need to translate it into Japanese.

If you mean feedback presented via the /blockfeedback attribute: No.

You need to devise another way to provide the feedback. Either use standard <text>, <trial> etc. elements

<block someblock>
/ trials = [...; 10=feedbacktrial]
...
</block>

<trial feedbacktrial>
/ stimulusframes = [1=feedbacktext]
...
</trial>

<text feedbacktext>
/ items = ("Percentage of correct responses: <%block.someblock.percentcorrect%>")
...
</text>

or use an instruction <page>

<block someblock>
/ postinstructions = (feedbackpage)
...
</block>

<page feedbackpage>
Percentage of correct responses: <%block.someblock.percentcorrect%>
</page>

Then translation is not a problem.

Thanks for this Dave, really helpful.
One more question if I may:
Is it possible to change the font size for...

/ caption
/ labels

... on survey sliding-scales?

Thanks again,
Julian

I mean separately, so that I could make the caption bigger than the labels (so it stands out more). Just to clarify.

Yes. See the various available fontstyle attributes:

<slider myslider>
/ caption = "Caption"
/ labels = ("A", "B")
/ fontstyle = ("Times New Roman", 8%)
/ responsefontstyle = ("Arial", 4%)
</slider>
