Hi all. I hope this finds you well in these testing and uneasy times.
OS (e.g. Win10): Win10
PsychoPy version (e.g. 1.84.x): PsychoPy3
Standard Standalone? (y/n) If not then what?: y
What are you trying to achieve?:
I am running a standard incentive delay paradigm with a cue (fixed duration 1500ms), followed by a fixation cross (fixed duration 750ms), followed by a random ISI (random duration, avg 1000ms), followed by a target (fixed duration 1500ms). I have experience coding in other psychology packages (Neurobs Presentation) but am new to PsychoPy. I have been working mainly in the builder function of Psychopy3 and adding code components as required.
I am trying to present different feedback (via .avi files) if the participant responds to the target with the correct response key and within a reaction time threshold (arbitrarily set now as 400ms but this will be updated on a trial-by-trial basis once I have got my head around what is causing this basic issue). The type of video feedback that is shown is dependent on the type of cue (orangebox, bluebox, greenbox) that is shown.
I have attached relevant screenshots and code in case that’s useful.
What did you try to make it work?:
I have followed advice on other threads and in the online tutorials and have created a conditions file which contains all the necessary file information. I have then called on the different stimuli using $x. For the feedback, I have created three different movie stimuli in the builder and then have added the following code to try and show the appropriate feedback:
if CueType == 'orangebox' and key_resp.corr and key_resp.rt < 0.4:
RewardVideo
elif not key_resp.corr:
RewardNone
else: ResponseRequired
^ that code is then repeated but with the different CueTypes e.g. ‘bluebox’.
What specifically went wrong when you tried that?:
All of the feedback videos are shown on top of one another - and so my guess is either the key_resp.corr and key_resp.rt isn’t working, or the right video isn’t being called. Please can you give me some advice on what you think might be causing this issue?
I’m sorry if this is a basic question but I hope we can get it resolved easily. Thank you so much.
