Hello All,

I have a batched file which contains several IATs and a survey script. My plan is to provide users with a link to the batched file on Inquisit to  have them complete. The website (MTurk) that I am using to recruit participants suggests having a unique survey completion code at the end of my survey, is there a way for me to include this on the final screen that thanks participants for participating?

Thank you!
toni

Sure. You can, for example, generate some large random number using the rand() function and -- if that's not unique enough for your purposes -- combine that with the participant's unique subject id. Store the result in a <values> entry and have a standard <text> element display that value in a the final <trial> (or whatever the final "screen" is in your particular case; displaying the code in an instruction <page> element works just as well).

Here's a simple example to illustrate: https://www.millisecond.com/forums/FindPost6753.aspx

The code generation & display should happen somewhere near the end of the final script in your <batch>, e.g., if it's an IAT, the appropriate place would be the "summary" <trial> element.

Alternatively, you can add a script to the <batch> at the very end that does nothing but generate and display the code. No changes to the other scripts (IATs, etc.) run by the <batch> would be required in this case.
