Adding image before each stimuli is presented

swifty_the_fox — Tue, 16 Nov 2021 23:49:25 GMT

Hi guys,

I am modifying the Penn Emotion Recognition Task (ER-40), which presents images of faces and then has the subject choose what emotion they saw. I would like to simply add another image before each face is shown, but I am struggling on how to do this. Where in the code can I add the image?

[left]<trial emotionRecognition>
/ inputdevice = mouse
/ ontrialbegin = [
    values.target = list.itemnumbers.nextindex;
    if (substring(item.images.item(values.target), 0, 1) == "F"){
        values.gender = 1;
    } else {
        values.gender = 2;
    };

    if (substring(item.images.item(values.target), 1, 1) == "H"){
        values.emotion = 1;
    } else if (substring(item.images.item(values.target), 1, 1) == "S"){
        values.emotion = 2;
    } else if (substring(item.images.item(values.target), 1, 1) == "A"){
        values.emotion = 3;
    } else if (substring(item.images.item(values.target), 1, 1) == "F"){
        values.emotion = 4;
    } else if (substring(item.images.item(values.target), 1, 1) == "N"){
        values.emotion = 5;
    };

    if (substring(item.images.item(values.target), 2, 1) == "X"){
        values.intensity = 1;
    } else if (substring(item.images.item(values.target), 2, 1) == "Z"){
        values.intensity = 2;
    } else {
        values.intensity = 0;
    };

]
/ stimulusframes = [1 = target, happy, sad, anger, fear, neutral, wall, testInstructions1, testInstructions2]
/ validresponse = (happy, sad, anger, fear, neutral)

    return(

You'll want to replace /stimulusframes in <trial emotionRecognition> with /stimulustimes and define whatever timing and sequence of stimuli you want there.

Basics like this you will find covered in the tutorials in the Inquisit documentation. https://www.millisecond.com/support/docs/v6/html/tutorials/covert_attention/cacreatingtrials.htm

Thank you very much! I have been able to make that work well.

Additionally, I would like to present an image a single time before the /stimulustimes begins. How do I stop it from being presented after the first time?

Set up a trial that does notthing but display that image, run it a single time.

<block emotionRecognition>
/ trials = [
    1 = thetrialthatdisplaystheimagethatyouonlywantdisplayedasingletime;
    2-41 = emotionRecognition;
    42 = finish;

Ah, thank you very much!
