You need to display your instructions using standard <text> and <trial> elements as in. <block myblock> / trials = [1=instructionstrial; 2-5=tasktrial] </block> <trial instructionstrial> / stimulusframes = [1=instructionstext] / validresponse = (0) / trialduration = 120000 </trial> <text instructionstext> / items = ("Your instructions go here. This screen will automatically move on after 2 minutes.") </text> <trial tasktrial> / stimulusframes = [1=mytext] / validresponse = (57) </trial> <text mytext> / items = ("This is the actual task. Press the spacebar.") </text>

In the current version of my experiment these instruction screens are page elements, and are called by the "/preinstruction" command in block elements. As far as I understand it, several settings for these instructions are set with the <instruct> element on top of my script. It seems possible to use a /timeout command under <instruct>, but removing the "/nextlabel" and "/nextkey" commands here only results in Enter to be the default button for continuing. Does anyone have a good idea how to solve this issue? Thanks for you time and effort!
