Hi,

I have a series of trials that have a correct response coded as either "1" or "" (no quotes are actually entered).

For the trials with a correct response defined as "", I would like Trial.ACC to be 0 if a response was given and 1 if no buttons were pressed. How might I go about this?

So far, I have tried setting up the following experiment:
  1.  Create a 10 item list, with a "correct" column
  2. label 3rd, 5th, and 8th item with "1"
  3. Run experiment.
    1. Enter "1" on 1st, 3rd, and 7th trials.
I would expect Trial.ACC for each trial to be:
  1. 0
  2. 1
  3. 1
  4. 1
  5. 0
  6. 1
  7. 0
  8. 0
  9. 1
  10. 1
However, Trial.ACC is actually this:
  1. NULL
  2. NULL
  3. 1
  4. NULL
  5. NULL
  6. NULL
  7. NULL
  8. NULL
  9. NULL
  10. NULL
Sincerely,
Adam Schadler
