Disabeling survey latency recording

https://forums.millisecond.com/Topic27722.aspx

Dear friends,

following probem: In the survey-data-file are colummns for each variable combined with a reffering latency. I want to have only the variables and the latency completely diabled.
I searched for a possibility to find a way to disable it but it is neither defined in the script to record latency nor I have found anythig in the inquisit language references.

Please help me it would be a pleasure.

It's not possible to customize data output for <survey> elements.

1) You can customize data output via the <data> element when you run your <surveypage>s via a <block>. Note that you'll get a long-format data file then, not a wide-format survey data file andor
2) specify a <summarydata> element that records only the variables of interest, i.e.

<summarydata>
/ columns = (script.startdate script.starttime script.subjectid script.groupid
radiobuttons.sex.response textbox.age.response textbox.height.response textbox.weight.response
radiobuttons.profession.response radiobuttons.survey_medical.response
...
slider.affective1.response slider.affective2.response
...)
</summarydata>

Thank you for your fast answers.

For 1.) When ich change it into data the survey lines getting just green and are not valid anymore. Do you have an example for me?

for 2.) Now I have added the summarydata but there are colummns where I don´t get an answer different from the old data where there is an answer but with the unused latency colummns. Do you have any idea how I can see a proper data?

When I have understood you right then it is sufficient to do either 1.) or 2.) to fix the problem right?

I don't understand what this means. Please explain. As I said, if you want to use the <data> element, you ought to use a <block> element, not <survey>, as in

<block example>
/ trials = [1=page1; 2=page2]
</block>

instead of

<survey example>
/ pages = [1=page1; page2]
</survey>

You have several mistakes in your <summarydata> element.

<summarydata>
/ columns = (script.startdate script.starttime script.subjectid script.groupid
radiobuttons.sex.response textbox.age.response textbox.height.response textbox.weight.response
radiobuttons.profession.response radiobuttons.survey_medical.response textbox.frecuency_vigorous_activity textbox.duration_vigorous_activity
textbox.examples_vigorous_activity_1 textbox.examples_vigorous_activity_2 textbox.frecuency_moderate_activity textbox.duration_moderate_activity activity
textbox.examples_moderate_activity_1 textbox.examples_moderate_activity_2 slider.cognitive1 slider.cognitive2 slider.affective3 slider.cognitive4
slider.affective1.response slider.affective2.response slider.affective3 slider.affective4 radiobuttons.concentration)
</summarydata>

needs to be textbox.frecuency_vigorous_activity.response and so forth, exactly as I explained in my previous response:
