These are currently embedded in the script as images. Our Ethics Committee requires that participants have the option of downloading both of these statements and I can't find a way of doing this other than to direct them first to a Qualtrics survey where the PLS is downloadable then to Inquisit and then back to another Qualtrics survey with the Debriefing statement OR getting them to enter their email address in the first Qualtrics survey and then emailing them the debriefing statement individually (which would be fun as we are wanting 300 participants). Is it possible to embed downloadable pages in an Inquisit 5 script? Thanks You can put a download link for the Plain Language Statement on your experiment's launch page (or -- if you prefer -- in your announcement on MTurk). Similarly, you can upload a custom finish page (HTML file) containing a download link to your Debriefing statement and redirect your participants to that custom finish page via your web experiment's settings. All these things would happen outside of your actual script, i.e. the script itself would neither contain the Plain Language Statement nor the Debriefing statement (or any links to either). Hi Dave, Thanks for this. I may be being an idiot but I can't see how to put a downloadable link on the launch page. Is there something I'm missing? Also, with the custom finish page how do I put in a download link. Sorry for being an idiot but I'm just not familiar with doing this. Have you put the statements online already in some downloadable format (e.g. PDF files in a public Dropbox folder or the like)? If so, you merely put the link to the respective document in the launch page's body and in a HTML file (for the custom finish page) which you can create with a HTML-capable editor of your choosing. You then merely upload the HTML finish page file along with your script and select to re-direct to that page in the web experiment's settings. Does that clarify?
