hi,
I'm coding a simple task that requires a response on the keyboard from 1 to 7. However, the recorded responses are shifted +1, so if I press "1" repeatedly it shows up as "2" in the data file. Would you have any idea what is going on? I am using a new macbook pro keyboard.
thank you!
<trial riskP>
/ stimulustimes = [0=blank; 1=dospQ, riskPStim]
/ beginresponsetime = 0
/ validresponse = (1,2,3,4,5,6,7)
/ responseinterrupt = trial
</trial>

(I also tried putting the numbers in quotes, and still all responses are recorded +1)

Inquisit records the numerical "keyboard scancode" as the response. The scancode for the digit 1 key at the top of the keyboard is 2, the scan code for the digit 2 key is 3, and so forth, i.e. this is not some bug, but the intended behavior. To figure out a given key's scan code, see Tools -> Keyboard Scancodes... and/or the "Keyboard Scan Codes" topic in the documentation. Hope this helps.
