Please help me to design n-back task, thank you

OS (Win 7):
PsychoPy version ( 1.84.x):

I’m trying to build the n-back task.
I’m finding it difficult to construct the paradigm. I’m not sure how to construct specifically in routine or i need to do using loops or Psychopy coding.

Specifically not able to define the the correct answer and inserting loop with defined variables in the spreadsheet.

Building a n-back test

Hi. I am trying to design n-back test using builder view. I read the previous topics related to n-back and it was somehow unclear. I created a routine and a loop (called trials) and in the condition file, below the “numbers” columns, I inserted numbers from 1 to 9. I selected the loop type as random. I found the code below for dual n-back, but I only want one n-back (comparing a number only with the previous number). # keep track of the variable that was current two trials ago: if trials.this…

Creating an n-back task in builder view

Hello everyone - I am new to Psychopy, and was wondering if anyone would be able to give me some advice on how to create an n-back task with pictures in builder view on PsychoPy version 1.84.2. I’m looking to create a 2-back task. I think I just need to work out what parameters to set. I want participants to respond when the stimulus in front of them at any given point is the same as two back, and want to record response times and accuracy. Any advice? Thanks in advance!

For us to help you, we need some specific issues to deal with. Can you try implementing a schemings like the ones suggested, and then come back to us with specific questions (if still necessary)?

I’m using Psychopy version 1.83 and I’m new to Psychopy. I’m thinking to design n-back task from n=2 to n=7 (as a level gradation ) using pictures as the stimuli in the builder-view. Need to record the responses with respect to reaction time and accuracy.

Any suggestions?? Thanks in advance.
