Performance Variables

Inquisit supports custom reporting of the following performance measures for blocks and trials. For block elements, the measures are aggregated over all trials in the block, regardless of the type of trial. For trial elements, the measures are aggregated over all occurrences of the specified trial. Each measure can be obtained across the last run of a block or across the entire experiment.

Variable name Variable description
correct Accuracy of the last response for the specified element (1 = correct, 0 = incorrect)
correctstreak The number of consecutive correct responses for the specified element over the last block
count The number of trials of the specified element over the last block
error Accuracy of the last response for the specified element (0 = correct, 1 = incorrect)
errorstreak The number of consecutive incorrect responses for the specified element over the last block
inwindow Whether or not the last response for the specified element was inside (1) or outside of (0) the response window
latency The last response latency recorded for the specified element
maxlatency The longest response latency for the specified element over the last block
