Hello,


I'm trying to program a dot probe study and am having some difficulties with the display times. 


For starters, is there a way to keep the probe displayed until the participants input a response?  Or, is there a way to modify the display time of the probe?  Should I be using a "stimulus timeout" command to accomplish this?  Currently I'm using the dot probe template and I'm finding that the probe disappears too quickly.



Similarly, I would like to adjust the stimuli display time so that it disappears after 500ms, instead of the preset of 1500ms. However, when I change the setting from 1500 to 500, the stimuli don't seem to appear at all.



Here is my presentation script if it helps:



<trial pleasantleft>


/ correctresponse = ("e")


/ validresponse = ("e", "i")


/ stimulustimes = [0=fixation; 500=erasefixation, pleasantleft, unpleasantright; 1500=erasewords, probeleft]


</trial>




Many thanks.
