I tried running the tasks in Inquisit 4 Lab, (verified that the scripts are for version 4) but still got the same results. I even wrote a small survey script and got similar results. This is how the demographics survey (used in the tutorial) is presented: http://imgur.com/zUUzxRG Even the following simple survey is presented badly: <dropdown sex> / caption = "Sex" / options = ("female", "male") </dropdown> <dropdown sex2> / caption = "Sex" / options = ("female", "male") </dropdown> <survey> / pages=[1=mypage] </survey> <surveypage mypage> /caption = "Please answer the following items to the best of your ability" / questions=[1=sex; 2=sex2] </surveypage> Did it ever happen to anyone? How did you solve it? What happens if a participant of mine experience similar problems? Thanks, Roy
