Manual Reaction Time Calculation

Required Experiment Builder Version: 1.1 or higher
EyeLink Required: No
Type: Concept Example
Difficulty Level: Easy

This example illustrates:
  • How to use Keyboard trigger to get participant's response
  • How to use Update Attribute node to calculate the RT between keyboard press and display screen onset (see RT_RESULT for formula)
  • How to use RT_RESULT Variable as a text resource to display reaction time
Description:

The simpleRT example demonstrates how you can collect manual reaction times.

This example displays a screen, waits for a keyboard response from the participant, and then displays the msec reaction time for the response. This sequence is performed twice.

**Additional detailed information about the project is given in the notes section for most nodes. To see notes for a given node, either mouse over that node or click on it to display the notes window. If the notes window is not visible, go to the "View" drop down menu in Experiment Builder, select "Properties", and check "Note".
