Hi All, 

I am trying to have the first valid response recorded in my data while keeping the trial on the screen until the correct response is given. 

Ps see a shape (e.g. Red circle) and can press the space bar. I wanna have that action recorded. But I do not want the circle to disappear from the screen as soon as the spacebar is pressed. I want the circle to stay on the screen for the full 2000ms trial duration. 

Looking at the help, I thought that by defining valid answers and correct answer and then specifying that response = correct, I would obtain what I needed (as this is what the help states). 

So my code for the trial looks like this: 

<trial RC>
/trialcode= "RC"
/stimulustimes = [0= RC]
/validresponse = (" ", noresponse)
/correctresponse = (noresponse)
/response = correct
/trialduration = 2000
</trial>

However, when looking at the data, it never records when the spacebar is pressed. 


If I remove the line "/response = correct", then as soon as the spacebar is pressed the red circle disappears from the screen. 

Is there something I didn't understand in the help? Or is it impossible to obtain what I want. 

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I can also copy the whole code if it is necessary.
