+x LSResearcher - 9/8/2023Greetings all, I am using the Inquisit OSPAN task in a lab study and it generally works fine, but on occasion we have a case where the task does not run normally. Specifically:1) there is no field for the participant to indicate the answers.2) And it automatically proceeds to the next question too quickly (not the actual time allocated)Here is a clip of that glitch:https://youtube.com/shorts/ukmsMjxPamY?feature=shareIt is very odd because it happens rarely, and it's not consistent. If we run another participant on the same task an hour later on the same computer, there is no problem. I have also seen this happen on completely different computer models in different labs. Any idea why this might happen? Thanks for any help!

If you skip over the math practice phase or just click through it very quickly, this can result in exactly what the video depicts. That would be me guess regarding what's going on here.
