Hi Everybody, Hi Dave
Sadly i couldn't figure out yet how to program the following experimental scenario:
Basically its a false memory (DRM) task, flavored with lateral word exposition in the encoding phase.
But here i'm only interested in the recognition phase.
Overall i got 4 x 2 lists of words and i want to check if the study participants after seeing a word press "Y" ( this word has been presented earlier) or "N" (no it hasn't.)
Additionally in line with a within subjects design the subjects should be randomly prompted to make fast or slow decision (700ms or 2500 ms after the word onset respectively) by means of presenting them an error beep and shortly after (300ms) a "too slow" text message - see piece of "code" below. I also wanted to provide them with RT feedback after every trial. The RTs should be recorded as well.
<trial critAslow>
/ stimulustimes = [0=FPcritA;2500=prompt;2800=slowmessage]
****** how to incorporate the RT feedback here so that it is visible and not erased by the / responseinterrupt = immediate property? probably via trial.critAslow.latency but where and how?:)*****
/ validresponse = ("t", "n")
/ correctresponse = ("t")
/ beginresponsetime = 0
/ responseinterrupt = immediate
/ posttrialpause = 2000
</trial>
The word Lists
* (A & B) refers to left or right in the encoding phase (which varies according to even or odd sub ID)
Crit lures A* - 30 items
Crit lures B* - 30 items
weak lures A* - 30 items
weak lures B* - 30 items
Studied words A* - 60 items
Studied words B* - 60 items
unrelated words (A) - 60 items
unrelated words (B) - 60 items
I wanted that for every participant exactly half of the words from every list will be randomly assigned to the fast and the "remaining" half to the slow retrieval condition.
Is that doable?
I would greatly appreciate any kind of help
Cheers
Kuba
