Group: Forum Members Posts: 6, Visits: 12	Hi, I am trying to program and Add-3 task where participants will see a string of 4 digits, have to add 3 to each digit, and then enter their response. I am using the openended trial for this, but want the participant to press 'ENTER' to enter their response (rather than using a mouse) because there will be many trials and I need it to go rapidly. If possible, I would also like to remove the button altogether. I have not been able to find a way to do that, and when I disable the mouse, even 'CTRL+RETURN' (which should work according to the Inquisit manual) does not work. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you, Marina Tags openended

So could you please be more specific about your setup / post the relevant portions of code? There is no way to get rid of the button, though.

Group: Forum Members Posts: 6, Visits: 12	Hi Dave, What you suggested worked well on my system, but now I just put the script online (http://research.millisecond.com/marinam/Mturkadd3.web), and it's no longer working. Any suggestions? Here are the relevant portions of the code: <openended practice_add3> / stimulustimes = [0 = signal; 1000 = eraser; 1100 = digit1; 2000 = eraser; 2100 = digit2; 3000 = eraser; 3100 = digit3; 4000 = eraser; 4100 = digit4; 5000 = eraser, response] / mask = positiveinteger / inputdevice = keyboard / charlimit = 4 / size = (15%, 2.5%) / validresponse = (anyresponse) /iscorrectresponse = [expressions.fulladd3 == openended.practice_add3.response] /ontrialend = [values.correctanswer = expressions.fulladd3] /ontrialend = [if (openended.practice_add3.correct == true) values.numcorrectadd3practice = values.numcorrectadd3practice + 1] / buttonlabel = "Press ENTER to continue" / errormessage = true(error,400) /correctmessage = true(yescorrect, 400) </openended> <block practiceadd3> / preinstructions = (add3_practiceinstructions) /onblockbegin = [values.numcorrectadd1practice = 0] /trials = [1-5 = practice_add3; 6=morepracticeadd3] / branch = [if (trial.morepracticeadd3.correct == 0) block.practiceadd3] </block>
