Repeated lines on IAT script

Confused_desi — Wed, 06 Jan 2021 21:29:59 GMT

Hello--

Happy New Year!

I am designing an IAT for one of my research projects. I used the trial version of Inquisit 5 app to modify the IAT script downloaded from the website, and it was ready to go. After returning to it today (which would be a month after I had finalized it), for some reason each line on the IAT script repeats multiple times. Furthermore, I am unable to alter/edit the script. I have attached three screenshots for your kind review.

I have tried downloading a new IAT script from the website, editing the script on TextEdits (btw, it look fine on textedits), and uninstalling- reinstalling the Inquisit 5 lab applications on my MacBook, but to no avail.

Any help or guidance would be much appreciated!

Thank you very much!

Sincerely,
A concerned grad student

You've probably upgraded your Mac to Big Sur. Inquisit 5's editor is not compatible with Big Sur, i.e. it will not display the script properly. The script itself is fine, though, and you can still run it under Inquisit 5 under Big Sur. To edit the script, however, you will need to install Inquisit 6 Lab (you don't need an Inquisit 6 license for this, an unregistered installation works just fine for mere editing).
