Hello,
I created a new Inquisit script based on a sample script for the Judgment Bias Task. In this task, participants are presented with profiles of various applicants and they are asked to accept or reject them based on their qualifications. There is an encoding (viewing) phase, where they just view the profiles and then there is a testing phase, where they accept or reject them.
In the sample script (with the cat images), the profiles in the encoding phase work fine. But even though I used pretty much the same script for my task (JBT-Inquisit.zip), there is a strange delay in the appearance of some of the stimuli in the encoding phase. I can't seem to figure out why this is happening.
The only changes I made were the images (I use faces instead of cats). I also have fewer trials (40 trials) instead of the 64 used in the sample study and added a few demographic questions
I would appreciate it if someone could let me know why this is happening. Could it be a problem with differences in image size? (My face images are around 20kb each while the cat pictures are about 9kb).
Thanks a lot!
