    variables missing, however time is recorded, what happened?

    So, looking through the data I found that some of the variables from a specific questionnaire were not recording. The questions were consistant from computer to computer (I mean, the same questions 2, 12, 18, etc.). I changed all of the questionnaire files and amended the change in the data folder. (I did not create the questionnaire files, so I don't know if it had to do with the record data check box or what)

    However, after looking through the data once again, I noticed that the time spent on the question was actually recorded and it is different from participant to participant. So where did the data go?

    Thanks!

    Can you post a zipped copy of the whole experiment folder from one of the machines and point out a few variables that seem to be missing? No need to include any stimuli (picture, movies, etc.), just all the .que, .exp files and the data folder, etc.

    So I sent an example of the data, the questionnaires, and the experiment itself.
    I highlighted the recorded times of the missing variables.

    I have changed the questionnaire files recently and it appears to be working now. I do not have a copy of the old questionnaire file. However, the older data, which I am sending to you, is missing these variables. And I am wondering how to find it?
