For one of my trials, I am trying to get the stimulus to remain on the screen for a certain amount of time and then allow the participant to press space for the next screen. Right now, I have a timeout set on the stimulus. How can i give them the option to continue to the next page after the allotted time?

You simply erase the stimulus, i.e. clear the screen, after the certain amount of time, and allow responses (here: spacebar press) from that time on.

[code]<trial exampleTrial>
/ stimulusTimes = [0=yourStimulus; 5000=clearScreen, PressSpaceForNext] // your stimulus is cleared after 5 seconds.
/ beginResponseTime = 5000 // can respond after 5 seconds
/ validResponse = (" ") // may press space bar
</trial>

<text yourStimulus>
/ items = ("Hi, I'm your stimulus.")
/ erase = false
</text>

<text pressSpaceForNext>
/ items = ("Press Space for next.")
</text>[/code]

P.S: For clarity, stimuli do not have timeouts. Trials or blocks do.
