Approach-Avoidance Task (error feedback)

Hi, I'm Japanese.

I have a question.

Now, I try to make AAT script in Japanese. I want to display the error massage in real experimental trial.

I added the following codes in zooming trial area.

<trial decrease>
/ontrialbegin = [if (values.expcondition == 1 && values.targetformat == "p") trial.decrease.insertstimulustime(text.error, 0)]
/ontrialbegin = [if (values.expcondition == 2 && values.targetformat == "l") trial.decrease.insertstimulustime(text.error, 0)]

<trial increase>
/ontrialbegin = [if (values.expcondition == 1 && values.targetformat == "l") trial.increase.insertstimulustime(text.error, 0)]
/ontrialbegin = [if (values.expcondition == 2 && values.targetformat == "p") trial.increase.insertstimulustime(text.error, 0)]

Then, error massages appeared.
However error massages was not correct. These massage was displayed many many times.

I want to know how I have to write codes.

Dear Dave

Wow! Thank you very much!
I could run the script correctly!

I'm very grateful to you.

You also need to reset <trial increase>'s and <trial decrease>'s stimulusframes as in the respective practice <trial>s. I.e.

<trial decrease>
...
/ontrialend = [trial.decrease.resetstimulusframes()]
...
</trial>

and

<trial increase>
...
/ontrialend = [trial.increase.resetstimulusframes()]
...
</trial>
