Multiple and diverse text entries showing at the same time #6

Closed GaiaCo closed 3 years ago

GaiaCo commented 4 years ago

Hello, I am using the psychophysics plug in in order to show two texts at the same time but would like to vary the text in each trial, choosing from a list of possibilities. For the moment I tried using the jsPsych.timetableVariable function but the plug in cannot fetch the text.

Cattura

The error message is "you have to specify the content of texts". Is this possible with this plug in? Thank you, I am really new to this and appreciate any help Best, Gaia

Thank you for using my plugin!

As for your question, here's an answer that might help https://github.com/jspsych/jsPsych/discussions/1031#discussioncomment-76667

You have to specify the timelineVariable in the top-level parameter. That is, you can write as follows:


stimuli: [jsPsych.timelineVariable('answer_LEFT')],

In additionm the answer_LEFT object needs to be specified without a timelineVariable.

Did you solve the problem?

My earlier response may not have been appropriate.

Please see the how_to_timeline_variables.txt

Please change the extension of this file from txt to html, and save it in the demos folder and it should work properly.
