You can see this for yourself by running <trial mytrial> / stimulusframes = [1=mytext] / validresponse = (57) / timeout = 5000 </trial> <text mytext> / items = ("<%trial.mytrial.timeout%>") </text> In a branch condition, any non-zero value (here: 5000) will be interpreted as 'true'. Thus your branch always fires. The correct way to do this is to check for 'no response'. /branch = [ if (trial.zpress.response == 0) trial.warnings]

If I let it timeout, it goes to a warning but if I hit the correct response it goes to the warning as well. Help please <trial zpress> /correctresponse = (50) /responsetrial = (50, method2) /branch = [ if (trial.zpress.timeout) trial.warnings] /timeout = 5000 </trial>
