Description of the problem:
I have created a task where participants complete blocks of trials that repeat a set number of times. One of the tasks is to assess whether a number is odd or even via key press. Something I am noticing is that if participants don’t respond to a single trial in a block of trials, the rt column will not be created. This causes issues because when I am sifting through the data and concatenating multiple subjects, the data columns don’t align and I have to manually go in and fix it.
Is there any way to ensure that an RT column will be created even if there are no key responses? I tried to write a small line of code to enter “None” in the RT column if no response is made, in the “End Routine” column:
if (key_resp_15.keys == null) {
psychoJS.experiment.addData("key_resp_15.rt", "None");
}
But this did not change anything about the output file. The other thing is that I need the column to be placed in the same position it would be in if someone actually made a response.
Thanks!
