Hi all - Completely new to Inquisit and wondering if anyone can tell
me if my experiment can be done. I am creating the experiment using Inquisit 3 trial version right now, but will eventually be putting the experiment on the web using Inquisit 4.


The experiment:
Participants are making judgments about
a series of randomized vignettes (repeated measures, all participants
receive all trials). I want there to be something distracting them while
they make these judgments, e.g. a red dot next to the vignette that
blinks at random times and that they have to press space bar each time
it blinks.


Ideally the experiment would include:



  • A vignette on the left side of the screen with a 2-4 likert scaled questions underneath it

  • A
    red blinking dot on the right side of the screen (displaying at the same time as the vignettes are displayed) with permanent
    instructions reminding them to press space bar whenever the dot appears

  • Vignette order is randomized

  • Likert scaled questions in random order on the same page

  • Reaction time calculated for responses to each vignette

  • Accuracy can be calculated (Go-No-Go type record) for their response to the blinking dot


Is this, or a close variation of this, possible with Inquisit?


Samples of what the script might look like would be greatly appreciated, too! Thanks in advance!
