Hi,


Does anyone know how to write a script for a word stem completion task? Basically what I want to do is this - Present a few sentences on screen with the last word of the paragraph missing two letters (which the participant enters the missing letters using the keyboard). For example....


"You are starting a new job. On your first day of work, you experience a number of unwanted thoughts. Regaining control of all unwanted thoughts should be d_ffic_lt."


In this example, the last word should read "difficult". I want to program it so the participant has to use the keyboard to enter the letters "i" and "u" to form the word "difficult". I also want it to provide feedback so that if the participant does not enter the correct letters the program will not move on until the correct letters are entered. Is this possible?


Is it also possible to randomly generate which two letters are missing each time? For example, the next time the script is run it might read "di_fi_ult" rather than "d_ffic_lt", for instance.


Thanks
