And THAT'S what I mean by missing something obvious - thanks, Dave. Appreciate the help.

Nick:
your <trial> names are not the point. The point is that you've misspecified one set of condition lists. Keep in mind:
Participants are instructed to press the left shift key when they see a blue square and the right shift key when they see a red square.
A *congruent* trial is when either a blue square is presented on the left side or a red square is presented on the right side. An *incongruent* trial is when either blue square is presented on the right side or a red square is presented on the left.
Now review your two sets of lists in terms of which stimulus (red / blue) you've paired with which position (left / right).
What you are missing is this: <list congruenthpos> / items = (15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%) / selectionmode = list.congruentstimtype.currentindex </list> ... <list incongruenthpos> / items = (85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%) / selectionmode = list.incongruentstimtype.currentindex </list>

Right, makes sense. When comparing mine to the original (below) though, it seems to have the same issue with no difference in the actual lists, but it runs fine with 50/50 incongruent/congruent...
Unless there's something obvious I'm missing here
For Congruent Trials (Test Block / 14 Congruent Trials) ******************************************************************************************************************************* ******************************************************************************************************************************* <list congruentstimtype> / items = (1,1,1,1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,2,2,2) / replace = false / selectionrate = trial </list>
<list congruenthpos> / items = (15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%) / selectionmode = list.congruentstimtype.currentindex </list>
<list congruentcresp> / items = (42,42,42,42,42,42,42,54,54,54,54,54,54,54) / selectionmode = list.congruentstimtype.currentindex </list>

To be more precise: Look at all your <lists>
<list congruentstimtype> / items = (1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2) / replace = false / selectionrate = trial </list>
<list congruenthpos> / items = (85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%) / selectionmode = list.congruentstimtype.currentindex </list>
<list congruentcresp> / items = (42,42,42,42,42,42,42,42,42,42,42,42,42,42,42,54,54,54,54,54,54,54,54,54,54,54,54,54,54,54) / selectionmode = list.congruentstimtype.currentindex </list>

<list incongruenthpos> / items = (85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,85%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%,15%) / selectionmode = list.incongruentstimtype.currentindex </list>

There is no difference there at all between your congruent and incongruent condition. The respective lists are identical. Hence all your trials are the same.

Where / how exactly are you distinguishing between congruent and incongruent stimuli?
<list congruentstimtype> / items = (1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2) / replace = false / selectionrate = trial </list> ... <list incongruentstimtype> / items = (1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2) / replace = false / selectionrate = trial </list>
appear to refer to the exact same stimuli, no difference.

Hello,
I tweaked the Simon task from the Inquisit library to increase the number of test blocks (from 1 to 3) and the number of trials w/ in each block (from 28 to 60). As in the original, 50% of trials are congruent and 50% incongruent. Here, incongruent means either a blue box appears on the right side of the screen or a red box appears on the left side of the screen. What's odd is that when I run the task, all the trials appear as incongruent, with no congruent ones, but the raw data files say that it's tracking both types of trials, 50/50. Comparing the two scripts - the original and mine - I can't seem to find the line of code which may be causing the error. I've included the line of code that I adapted where the lists and trials are specified.
Thanks!
