Hello all,
I'm new to inquisit so please have patience with me :)
In my script I need to have a correct message showen to the participant when they press either I or E correctly.
Unfortunalty, when I formated a correct message similar to how I formatted my error message, it shows up before the entire trial. I have no idea why this happening. I do get a correct message showen when I make a correct decision but, there is always a correct message before the stimuli have appeared or before I press any keys.
Could someone point out what I am doing wrong in my script? Help would greatly be appreciated!
Thank you
