Hello,
Apologies for the potentially really easy question, but I can't seem to find my error in my script. I'm trying to show 8 videos, selected from a list at random, and have pp answer questions about each. I've gotten the script to run, but it just plays the same video (the first one) 8 times, instead of playing the 8 videos on time each at random. I'm sure there's a typo somewhere that's causing the computer to get confused, but I think I need to learn a little more to figure it out. I've copied and pasted a section of the code below:

<expt UNTUABSTAND1>
/ blocks = [1=Consent; 2=ParCode; 3=PatientVideoInstructions; 4-11=myblockMac; 12=ClosingScreen]

Thank you in advance for your time.
