Recording time between moves in Tower of Hanoi task

[Lisa Di Giannantonio]

Hello,

I am designing an experiment that will be examining duration of time participants take in between moves in the tower of Hanoi task in addition to the number of moves the participant takes to complete the task. How would I alter the script that was provided by http://step.psy.cmu.edu/scripts-plus/ to track and record that data for each participant?

Thank you

Lisa

I think all relevant information is already available in the ouptut of the TOHx script. Each event (selecting source and selecting target position) is saved separately within each iteration of the ActionList. I think the most useful attribute is the absolute response time (WaitForRespons.RTTime). You can use this timestamp to calculate differences. Other useful attributes are Selected (1 if source was selected, 0 if the target position was selected) and StimOnset (absolute time stamp of stimulus). There are also separate attributes for total number of moves and time that was required to complete a solution.

best
paul
