Rhythm Task

That could definitely be a possibility. How exactly would you program this into DirectRT. Also, is it possible to allow for more RTs per trial or is 99 a limit.

Thanks,

99 is the limit, I believe.

Say the tap key is the spacebar (code = 57) and ENTER (code = 28) is the exit key.

You could just repeat this over and over:

stim|loc|trial
~|0,0,0|rt:57,28>2

Where this is trial 1 and pressing the ENTER key would take you out to trial 2.

Does that make sense?

I tried it and it works but I think I'll go the InputRT way. The main problem is that many subjects feel like they can continue to tap even after 99 rts. I think this would be a good feature to add to DirectRt in the future where the number of stims per trial could be increased.

Thanks,

I guess you could also just insert an adjacent trial with another 99 taps permitted. Just use a trial interval of 50ms or so to make them appear seamless. Regardless of which trial they stop on, you could have them skipped to the same place.
