Hello,

I want to measure participants' reaction time in response to stimulus onset.  I currently have /beginresponsetime written into the code, and while it does measure reaction time, there is no longer a fixation cross presented after each stimulus' trial (the triangle stimulus just goes into the next stimulus without a fixation cross separating each trial).  I have copied/pasted the triangle trial below so you can give me suggestions on how to measure reaction time AND keep the fixation cross.  Thank you.

<trial triangle>
/ ontrialbegin = [values.category = "triangle"]
/ ontrialbegin = [values.itemnumber = list.triangleitems.nextvalue]
stimulustimes = [0 = fixationcross; 500 = triangle; 1200 = shape.eraser; 1201 = fixationcross]
/stimulustimes = [0 = triangle; 1500 = shape.eraser; 1501 = fixationcross]
/inputdevice = keyboard
/ isvalidresponse = [values.responsekey]
iscorrectresponse = [values.responsekey = 1]
/ beginresponsetime = 0
/ timeout = (values.fixationduration + values.trianglepresentation)
/ posttrialpause = rand(values.iti_min, values.iti_max)
</trial>
