Hi

When I have added in a new value it leads to the script crashing and closes down the whole of the Inquisit desktop programme so I think I may be doing something wrong. I am also not sure if values are the best way to do it. In my task 3 shapes are randomly assigned to 3 values (£9, £5, £1) and participants make judgments based on shape and label presentations. I want to program the feedback so that it is linked to the randomly selected stimuli (e.g., incorrect you lose £9), but due to the random selection of stimuli and tag I am having some difficulties.

I have tried to do this as follows. The random selection of picture and tag works, but when I add values.icfeedback... it crashes.

<block block_info>
/ onblockend = [
if (list.nsat_tag.item(1) == "£9") {values.pic1con = "£9"; values.tag1name = "£9"; values.icfeedback1 = "incorrect - you lose 9 tokens"};
if (list.nsat_tag.item(2) == "£9") {values.pic2con = "£9"; values.tag2name = "£9"; values.icfeedback2 = "incorrect - you lose 9 tokens"};
if (list.nsat_tag.item(3) == "£9") {values.pic3con = "£9"; values.tag3name = "£9"; values.icfeedback3 = "incorrect - you lose 9 tokens"};
if (list.nsat_tag.item(1) == "£5") {values.pic1con = "£5"; values.tag1name = "£5"; values.icfeedback1 = "incorrect - you lose 5 tokens"};
if (list.nsat_tag.item(2) == "£5") {values.pic2con = "£5"; values.tag2name = "£5"; values.icfeedback2 = "incorrect - you lose 5 tokens"};
if (list.nsat_tag.item(3) == "£5") {values.pic3con = "£5"; values.tag3name = "£5"; values.icfeedback3 = "incorrect - you lose 5 tokens"};
if (list.nsat_tag.item(1) == "£1") {values.pic1con = "£1"; values.tag1name = "£1"; values.icfeedback1 = "incorrect - you lose 1 token"};
if (list.nsat_tag.item(2) == "£1") {values.pic2con = "£1"; values.tag2name = "£1"; values.icfeedback2 = "incorrect - you lose 1 token"};
if (list.nsat_tag.item(3) == "£1") {values.pic3con = "£1"; values.tag3name = "£1"; values.icfeedback3 = "incorrect - you lose 1 token"};]

Example trial
<trial Con1>
/ ontrialbegin = [ values.Con_match = "match"; values.Con_shape = values.pic1con;
       values.Stim_Content =picture.Pic1.currentitem; values.Con_label = text.Tag1.currentitem;
       values.cres=values.mRes; values.wres = values.nRes; values.TrialID += 1;]
/ stimulustimes = [0=fixation; 500=Pic1, Tag1;650=clearscreen]
/ correctresponse = (values.cres)
/ validresponse = (values.nRes, values.mRes)
/ beginresponsetime = 500
/ responseinterrupt = immediate
/ response = timeout(1500)
/ posttrialpause = parameters.iti
/ responsemessage = (values.cres, feedback_C, 500)
/ responsemessage = (values.wres, values.icfeedback1, 500)
/ responsemessage = ("", feedback_NR, 500)
</trial>

Many thanks in advance for any help as I am not sure what is causing the issue so I don't therefore know where to look to solve it.

                         You can simply do <trial Con1> / ontrialbegin = [...

                             Thank you so much, that works perfectly!
