I have a simple experiment that works well but I can’t make it quit when ‘space’ is pressed which is not a correct answer. Correct answer is to press ‘right’. The code I use is below. I tried adding core.quit() thing to Each Frame part but it didn’t work. The experiment keeps on continuing to proceed until the end. Any suggestions would be great.
I think the problem is that your code is in the End Routine tab - this runs when the Routine is already ended. If you move the code to Each Frame then this should end the Routine
Thank you @TParsons When I moved the code to Each Frame it doesn’t even begin the task. Do I need to have another code in the End Routine tab? What else should I do?
No, it doesn’t give any error. Actually, it runs the instructions and also shows the sample practices but skip the main trials which are Beads_80_20 and Beads_60_40 for the experiment.
Could you share the .psyexp file for your experiment? I’m interested to see what the trials_2 and trials_4 loops are doing - it may be ended them as soon as they begin
Ahh I see what’s happening - when you set a correct answer, key_resp.corr is False until the correct answer is pressed. So saying if not key_resp.corr: is not “if they give a wrong answer”, it’s “if they haven’t given a correct answer (yet)”, so it ends immediately.
What you need to do is put the whole thing inside of:
if key_resp.keys:
That way it only checks the status of .corr after something has been pressed
