Screening data in SPSS

Inquisit gives us 2 separate data-files for the tasks, but puts the data of the 4 survey-scripts into one data-file and doesn't show the item names of any other but the first script. We tried to import this script into SPSS with the same result. Is there something we have to put in the survery-scripts (and therefore in the Batch) so that our Inquisit data-output shows the same name of the variable as we named them in Inquisit? Attached our survey scripts and the inquisit output with 3 test-runs. Hope you can help us with this?! Thanks so much in advance, cheer*c&n Attachments script1_KDS_Einleitung.iqx (232 views, 16.00 KB) script4_KDS_Diagnostik.iqx (249 views, 36.00 KB) script5_KDS_Validierung_mit_6_Wörtern.iqx (253 views, 47.00 KB) script6_Email_final.iqx (213 views, 1.00 KB) screening.iqdat_mit_email.iqdat (218 views, 9.00 KB)

By default, the name of the data file for a <survey> element is determined by a given <survey> element's name. The problem with your scripts is that the <survey> elements are all named identically, namely <survey screening>, and hence all write to the same file. Give them different, unique names (e.g. <survey screening1>, <survey screening2>, etc.). Edited 9 Years Ago by Dave

One more (tiny) question:) - in our screening, Inquisit is now also recording the latency time of every item, which we need in the tasks, but not in the survey-screenings. Is there another trick to tell Inquisit not to record these? Thanks again in advance, cheers*nico&constanze
