Hello.

I am currently customizing the auditory digit span task: https://www.millisecond.com/download/library/digitspan/
and translating it into Japanese.
The point of customization is to add a feature of measuring response latency for each trial (from the point of digits (stimuli) presentation to that of response confirmation).
Even if I added some related codes on it, the output column of (values.rt) shows only "0" for all trials.
It would be appreciated if you could let me know how to fix this.

Here's what I added (For forward level 3)

<data>
/ columns = (~, values.rt)
</data>

<values>
~
/rt = 0
</values>

<trial f_trial3>
/ ontrialend = [
   ~
   values.rt = trial.f_trial3.latency;
    list.rt.appenditem(values.rt);
]
/ recorddata = true

Each "trial" in the digit span encompasses multiple <trial> elements, and f_trial3 has a duration of zero and is not responsible for measuring any response. You'll want to store script.elapsedtime in a variable /ontrialbegin the the various f_trialX and b_trialX <trial> elements (or the timestamp property of the 1st digit audio <sound> stimulus /ontrialend if you want to measure from onset of the 1st digit presented) and then store script.elapsedtime again in a different variable in the f_trialX_responseInput and b_trialX_responseInput <trial> elements if the response there submitted is "submit". Then subtract variable 1 from variable 2 and you have your latency.
