I have an experiment right now which I want the routine to be skipped if the participant does not score at least 8 out of 12 right in the practice. However, it still proceeds onto the next routine. the current flow is as such: Instructions Practice Instructions Test End [image] Focusing on the…

do_game and show_instr2 are both variables that can be either true or false. See my diagram above for the game on/off loop. I don’t have time to troubleshoot further right now, sorry.

Right now, the ShowOrSkip will only happen after all of the practice trials are done, so I don’t think you need the if statement with practiceLoop.thisTrialN == 11. As long as you set your test_game variable as the number of reps for the testgameLoop, I think it will do what you want. However, make…

Thanks for the reply! Okay maybe to make things a bit clearer. I have a repeated practice in place within the practiceLoop. There are a total of 24 trials split into 2 x 12 trials. in the first 12 trials, if they score at least an 8, they will move onto the test routine, else, they will move onto …

So, based on what your goal is, I would recommend this organization (or something like it): [image] • Note that the ! is a negation. So !do_game would mean the participant had less than 8 trials correct, and cannot proceed to the game. • To increase the number of chances participants have to do …

That seems great but I’m wondering if its possible to work ontop of the current flow and goal i have. Based on my flow diagram above, I have a few codes that are already in place and it seems to be working except for the goal in which i want the test routine to be skipped if they do not achieve at l…

Ah, this is very helpful, I understand a little better what you are doing now. :slight_smile: A couple more questions: It seems like you currently have mostly the same code in the trial and Instr2 routines. Why not just have it in Instr2, at the end of the loop? Why are you looking for score <=5 …

[image] Routine does not continue Builder Why do you have 5 in the code?

Hmmm, perhaps it would help if i explain a little more. There are a total of 24 trials in the practiceLoop. These 24 trials are split into 2 rounds of 12 trials. In the first 12 trials, all participants will have to do it. If on the 12th round, the participant scores at least 8, Instr2 will not con…

So, if I can summarize what I understand: You want the instruction routine to appear only on trial 12, only if the participant scores less than 5 You want the practice loop to break after 12 trials if they got at least 8 of those 12 correct If that’s the case: Right now, since you have practiceL…

Yes, that is absolutely correct! Right now, since you have practiceLoop.Finished = True in Inst2, it will end the whole loop if they get only 5 trials correct. I would suggest taking this line out. With regards to this, the loop ends while that code is in place (i.e., if score <=5) especially wh…

This is my suggestion (or something similar-- I’m sure there’s a more concise way to write this): Be careful about the order of things here… I think setting continueRoutine to False will immediately quit the routine and later code would not be run. In the practiceLoop trial routine Begin Routine …
