How does participant quit Inquisit?

Hi All

I need to provide my participants with the option to opt out of my survey/experiment at anytime. How do you exit out of Inquisit while a task is running. I have been using the 'Force Quit' command on my Mac to do this myself, but need an easier way for respondents to do so.

The sample survey script I used instructs participants to press ALT + E to exit, however this does not work for me (on my Mac anyway).

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks
Belinda.

The standard hotkey to terminate a running experiment is CTRL+Q. You'll find that documented in the "Inquisit Keyboard Commands" topic in the documentation:

You can also define a custom key combination for your script via the <defaults> element's /quitcommand attribute:
