Hi,
I am running into a bit of an issue with this study I am making. Basically there are orange and purple faces and each block has a different sorting rule (e.g., respond to gender if it is orange, and respond to emotion if it is purple).
Is there a way to set up the correct response so that it depends on the trial's a) colour of the presented face, and b) current sorting rule
Right now, I am having to hard code each of the different trial types (orange, male, angry - sorting rule 1/ orange, male, neutral - sorting rule 1/ orange, female, angry -sorting rule 1 etr...) since each will have a different response.
O = orange, P = purple, M = male, F = female, N = neutral, A = angry
Here are a few of my trials right now:
<trial training_OMA>
/ validresponse = (203,205)
/ stimulustimes = [0 = rectangle; 100 = fixation; 750 = training_OMA, Sorting_Rule_1, RM_left_Block1, RM_right_Block1, right,left]
/ beginresponsetime = 750
/ correctresponse = (205)
</trial>
<trial training_PMN>
/ validresponse = (203,205)
/ stimulustimes = [0 = rectangle; 100 = fixation; 750 = training_PMN, Sorting_Rule_1, RM_left_Block1, RM_right_Block1, right,left]
/ beginresponsetime = 750
/ correctresponse = (205)
</trial>
<trial training_PFN>
/ validresponse = (203,205)
/ stimulustimes = [0 = rectangle; 100 = fixation; 750 = training_PFN, Sorting_Rule_1, RM_left_Block1, RM_right_Block1, right,left]
/ beginresponsetime = 750
/ correctresponse = (205)
</trial>
<trial training_OFA>
/ validresponse = (203,205)
/ stimulustimes = [0 = rectangle; 100 = fixation; 750 = training_OFA, Sorting_Rule_1, RM_left_Block1, RM_right_Block1, right,left]
/ beginresponsetime = 750
/ correctresponse = (203)
</trial>
I would appreciate any help! I have spent the last week looking through past questions and came up short.
