Hi Axel,
Thanks for your responses, you're really helping out.
1) I was pretty certain that it must be something this simple, but it is indeed set to "set every repeat".
2) Having set the basis for the experiment in builder I have now opened the script and continue to work on it entirely in coder view. Level is correctly defined but;
3) upon printing the dot coherence, even though during trials the dot coherence does not appear to change (I am able to respond with 100% accuracy) I record coherence values such as:
"0.506172839506
0.296296296296
0.0987654320988
0.0
0.0
0.0
0.0
0.0
0.0
0.0"
on the first 10 trials, with an initial stepsize of 0.2. Again, I am responding with 100% accuracy to 0.0 coherence...
...Just out of interest I ran the code again, purposefully responding incorrectly to the first 5 trials, and the subsequent trials correctly. My stepsize progresses correctly from 0.2, to 0.1 after the first reversal.
0.506172839506
0.703703703704
0.901234567901
1.0
1.0
0.901234567901
0.802469135802
0.703703703704...
Again that is a large change in coherence, but the 0.5 and the 1.0 levels of coherence look identical.
I must be overlooking something.
Many thanks,
Luke.
