Hello, 

I'm trying to make an error message in my script and I don't know how to implement the error message into my trials.

I am referencing how to make an error message from a different IAT script which looks like this:  

<trial attributeA>
/ validresponse = ("E", "I")
/ correctresponse = ("E")
/ stimulusframes = [1 = attributeA, errorReminder]
/ posttrialpause = parameters.ISI
</trial>


This is what I am working with, I don't have a stimulus frame where I can implement the "error Reminder", so I don't know where to put the error message:

<trial DemB>
/ validresponse = ("E")
/ correctresponse = ("E", "I")
/ beginresponsetime = 0
/ontrialbegin = [
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 0);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 1000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 2000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 3000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 4000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 5000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 6000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 7000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 8000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 9000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 10000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 11000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 12000);]
/ posttrialpause = 500
/ontrialend= [trial.DemB.resetstimulusframes(7000)]
</trial>

Simply define and error stimulus and an /errormessage attribute in your trial as detailed in the documentation:

I tried what you suggested and I implemented the attribute into my blocks as the link describes. However, it still isn't showing the error when I run the script.

Could you tell me what I am doing wrong?:

Simply define and error stimulus and an /errormessage attribute in your trial as detailed in the documentation:

I tried what you suggested and I implemented the attribute into my blocks as the link describes. However, it still isn't showing the error when I run the script.

Hello, 

I'm trying to make an error message in my script and I don't know how to implement the error message into my trials.

I am referencing how to make an error message from a different IAT script which looks like this:  

<trial attributeA>
/ validresponse = ("E", "I")
/ correctresponse = ("E")
/ stimulusframes = [1 = attributeA, errorReminder]
/ posttrialpause = parameters.ISI
</trial>


This is what I am working with, I don't have a stimulus frame where I can implement the "error Reminder", so I don't know where to put the error message:

<trial DemB>
/ validresponse = ("E")
/ correctresponse = ("E", "I")
/ beginresponsetime = 0
/ontrialbegin = [
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 0);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 1000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 2000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 3000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 4000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 5000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 6000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 7000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 8000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 9000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 10000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 11000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 12000);]
/ posttrialpause = 500
/ontrialend= [trial.DemB.resetstimulusframes(7000)]
</trial>

Simply define and error stimulus and an /errormessage attribute in your trial as detailed in the documentation:

https://www.millisecond.com/support/docs/v5/html/language/attributes/errormessage.htm

I tried what you suggested and I implemented the attribute into my blocks as the link describes. However, it still isn't showing the error when I run the script.

Could you tell me what I am doing wrong?:

/instructionIndex = 0
/progresswidth = 0

/progress = 1% * values.progresswidth

So how do I show this in my trials because the link that you shared only shows how I implement that in my blocks. I originally asked on the first post how to implement the error message in my trials. Could you please show me how to  specifically implement an error in my trials for my script?

Specific help would be greatly appreciated!

This is what I am working with, I don't have a stimulus frame where I can implement the "error Reminder", so I don't know where to put the error message:

<trial DemB>
/ validresponse = ("E")
/ correctresponse = ("E", "I")
/ beginresponsetime = 0
/ontrialbegin = [
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 0);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 1000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 2000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 3000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 4000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 5000);

/ posttrialpause = 500

</trial>

Simply define and error stimulus and an /errormessage attribute in your trial as detailed in the documentation:

https://www.millisecond.com/support/docs/v5/html/language/attributes/errormessage.htm

I tried what you suggested and I implemented the attribute into my blocks as the link describes. However, it still isn't showing the error when I run the script.

Could you tell me what I am doing wrong?:

So how do I show this in my trials because the link that you shared only shows how I implement that in my blocks. I originally asked on the first post how to implement the error message in my trials. Could you please show me how to  specifically implement an error in my trials for my script?

Specific help would be greatly appreciated!

You can define /errormessage at the block-level or at the trial-level. That's not the issue here. The issue here is, as I said, that there is no wrong response in most of your trials. An error cannot occur. Hence you don't see an error message.

You have two keys defined as responses and you treat both as correct.

/ correctresponse = ("E", "I")

Hello, 

I'm trying to make an error message in my script and I don't know how to implement the error message into my trials.

I am referencing how to make an error message from a different IAT script which looks like this:  

<trial attributeA>
/ validresponse = ("E", "I")
/ correctresponse = ("E")
/ stimulusframes = [1 = attributeA, errorReminder]
/ posttrialpause = parameters.ISI
</trial>


This is what I am working with, I don't have a stimulus frame where I can implement the "error Reminder", so I don't know where to put the error message:

<trial DemB>
/ validresponse = ("E")
/ correctresponse = ("E", "I")
/ beginresponsetime = 0
/ontrialbegin = [
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 0);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 1000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 2000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 3000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 4000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 5000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 6000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 7000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 8000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 9000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 10000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 11000);
  trial.DemB.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 12000);]
/ posttrialpause = 500
/ontrialend= [trial.DemB.resetstimulusframes(7000)]
</trial>

Simply define and error stimulus and an /errormessage attribute in your trial as detailed in the documentation:

There are only correct responses in most of your <trial>s, so how is it supposed to show an error message?

<trial Practice>
/ validresponse = ("E")
/ correctresponse = ("E", "I")
/ beginresponsetime = 0
/ontrialbegin = [
trial.Practice.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 0);
trial.Practice.insertstimulustime(list.Repplus.nextvalue, 1000);
trial.Practice.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 2000);
trial.Practice.insertstimulustime(list.Repplus.nextvalue, 3000);
trial.Practice.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 4000);
trial.Practice.insertstimulustime(list.Repplus.nextvalue, 5000);
  trial.Practice.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 6000);
  trial.Practice.insertstimulustime(list.Repplus.nextvalue, 7000);
  trial.Practice.insertstimulustime(list.Demplus.nextvalue, 8000);

So how do I show this in my trials because the link that you shared only shows how I implement that in my blocks. I originally asked on the first post how to implement the error message in my trials. Could you please show me how to  specifically implement an error in my trials for my script?

Specific help would be greatly appreciated!

You can define /errormessage at the block-level or at the trial-level. That's not the issue here. The issue here is, as I said, that there is no wrong response in most of your trials. An error cannot occur. Hence you don't see an error message.

You have two keys defined as responses and you treat both as correct.

/ correctresponse = ("E", "I")

I see, thanks so much for your help.
