Dear all,

i have a question regarding the PRL:
We noticed that in some cases, the "point counter" of the task stays on the same amount of points collected, when a participant chose the incorrect pattern after a reversal has taken place. Even though this counts as an incorrect choice, the points do not go down (see the data attachment, starting at trial number 833, point counter is on 88). This problem seems to happen only if someone consistently gives an incorrect answer after a reversal took place, so the response category is always RE (reversal error).
Do i maybe understand the task not correctly? I thought that whenever you get the feedback "correct" (even if its actually not correct) you get a point, and vise-versa, you get the feedback "incorrect", you lose points. 
I am attaching the script aswell.

Thank you so much in advance!

Sabrina
