On two experiments I am running (corsi_blocks, digit_span) when I download results there is data from participants that are not mine and none of my data is there. I have tried pressing ‘delete media results’ and trying again but the issue still persists. I have even tried clearing my cache and refre…

Are you saving to CSV or database? Are you using the run or pilot link?

Hi, Both CSV and database data folders are having the same issue, and I’m running the experiment using the run link with participant info added to the URL

On your project page are you seeing an increase in submitted results? Have you tested it through yourself in case there is an error at the end? Also, there were server load issues today which were causing issues, so was it all today?

I’ve only been checking the data storage today but I have not been seeing an increase in submitted results on either experiment. Everything runs well on my end with no errors, as far as I can see. I did have some issues earlier with the server but those seem to be seperate. (Also I appreciate the sp…

I forgot to mention participants will be linked to the experiments through a Qualitrics survey containing instructions, if this is relevant at all

Is there any redirection or End Experiment code at the end of your experiment. Launching from Qualtrics shouldn’t have any effect. Did it save data for you when you just tested it? Why do you think participants are finishing it, if the submitted number isn’t increasing?

I’m not recruiting yet so there aren’t participants, the data there should be from me running through it to test. My data is not saving, there’s only rows and rows of data from participants that are not mine. There is redirection at the end of my code where participants are linked back to the Qualt…

Delete the local data folder and then resync to delete the data that was present when you forked the demo. If you pilot, data only gets saved locally. I haven’t successfully redirected to the same Qualtrics survey at the end. I used to use two separate Qualtrics surveys but nowadays I usually use …

Sorry I misspoke earlier, participants are linked to the experiment from qualtrics and after completing the experiment on pavlovia participants are directed to a new survey on qualtrics, there’s an empty embedded data box with a variable called ‘participant’ for the participant number to be inserted…

I would recommend that you use the redirect URL in PsychoPy Experiment Settings rather than quitting and redirecting in code. If you are expecting data to be saving, that’s the culprit.
