Hello everyone,
I'm currently programming two different tasks for an upcoming experiment one of which requires the ability to skip a task/trial. Because we want to avoid people quickly skipping a single anagram without even really trying to solve it, we would like to put a time limit on it. E.g. 10 seconds during which the subject should at least try to solve the anagram. During this time they can get to the next anagram trial if they put in either a correct or incorrect response and press the "Finish"-button e.g. If they haven't entered a solution within those 10 seconds, they can either keep trying to solve the anagram or be able to skip it by pressing a button e.g. It could also be done by pressing a certain key but they shouldn't be able to skip by pressing said button or key BEFORE the 10 sec minimum.
I've tried to come up with an idea how to put this into reality within Inquisit 4 and haven't found a solution yet. Before I spend too much time on this, I would like to know if this is even possible? And if so, how? I don't need step-by-step instructions just what elements to use would be fine. I believe I can probably figure out the rest on my own.
If this is not possible under Inquisit 4 but would be under Inquisit 5 that would also be helpful to know because we might consider an upgrade then.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read and possibly reply.
Kind regards,
Nadine
