> Does Inquisit have a "log all timings" toggle built-in?
Yes, something like this exists. You can set
<data>
...
/ audit = true
...
</data>
which will create an additional file with a *.log extension containing timing information for the various events & stimuli.
If you want a more tailored solution, you'd need to set /recorddata = true in all <trial> elements and additional log the stimulusonset property of every stimulus element to the data file by adding it to the <data> element's /columns attribute, as in
<data>
...
/ columns = [..., text.sometext.stimulusonset, picture.sometext.stimulusonset, ...]
...
</data>
You may also want to add various elapsedtime properties (e.g. block.someblock.elapsedtime, etc).
And if you really, really want to audit timing and also take into account the physical characteristics of your equipment (display response times, etc.), you would have to hook up external measurement equipment to the computer(s) (e.g. BlackBox Toolkit, photosensors, and/or record things using a high-speed camera).
Hope this helps.
