Hi,
I adapted the Continuous Inclusion of Other in the Self (Continuous IOS) script from the Inquisit test library. However, instead of measuring circle overlap, I would like to measure perceived social distance using draggable dots on a continuous line scale (similar to a slider).
Specifically:
* In the first part, participants would drag a dot on the right side (representing one identity) along a line to indicate the perceived distance between two identities (measured in millimetres or pixels), while the dot on the left side remains fixed.
* In the second part, participants would drag three dots (e.g., self, friend, stranger) on the same line to represent the relative distances between identities.
Does anyone know how this could be implemented in Inquisit?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Does anyone know how this could be implemented in Inquisit? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! There are plenty of drag and drop examples available in the library as well as in this forum, and measuring distance is trivial and has also been discussed here many times (e.g. https://forums.millisecond.com/Topic22122.aspx , https://forums.millisecond.com/Topic33516.aspx, https://forums.millisecond.com/Topic32322.aspx ). So, what part are you struggling with concretely? Maybe start with working up a small demo for part 1 ("In the first part, participants would drag a dot on the right side (representing one identity) along a line to indicate the perceived distance between two identities (measured in millimetres or pixels), while the dot on the left side remains fixed.") and once you have that running, expand from there.
