Consent form, but with two pages

AnthonyFCollinsSussex — Thu, 25 Mar 2021 17:47:47 GMT

Hey there

Hope all is well. There are two parts to very minor this: participants first read an information sheet, and then are presented with the consent form (both html documents, this is a must). I have successfully coded 'next' and 'back' buttons, respectively, after some practice/scrolling through forums. The script runs fine too!

On the consent sheet, they either consent (moves onto next script in batch) or they do not consent (aborts script/terminates batch, they cannot proceed).

The issue is the following: When pressing 'agree to consent' option', it requires two clicks of the mouse to register. After the first click, the consent form remains on screen (it reloads itself after a very brief flash/screen refresh).

Pressing 'do not consent' option is fine and behaves accordingly. All that is needed then is agree to consent registers on one click (with mouse) once pressed. I pasted the script below. I have a feeling it has something to do with values or /stop in the block, but I cannot put my finger on it :(

Thank you kindly in advance!

You run block info:

<expt>
/ blocks = [1 = Info; 2 = Consent]
</expt>

Block info runs trial info, which then branches to trial consent:

<block Info>
/ stop = [values.itemnumber >=3;]
/ trials = [1=Info]
</block>

<trial Info>
/inputdevice = mouse
/stimulustimes = [0 =Info; 0=next1]
/validresponse = (next1)
/ branch = [if(trial.Info.response == "next1")trial.Consent]
</trial>

So: Trial consent is invoked in block info. The whole thing aborts if consent is declined.

If consent is given, however, you move on to block consent:

<expt>
/ blocks = [1 = Info; 2 = Consent]
</expt>

Block consent runs trial consent again:

<block Consent>
/ stop = [values.itemnumber >=3;]
/ trials = [1=Consent]
</block>

This is entirely unnecessary. Remove block consent.

It has done the trick, thank you, I think I was forgetting the chain of the command that invokes the next stage. Indeed, the experiment simply re-runs the consent block again when its there, only one block needed in the exp to set it all in motion.

All this has really helped massively for my phd experiment, thank you so much (including previous help).
