    Can MediaLab calculate scores and variables to use during the session?

    Is there a way to incorporate input from the participant into subsequent stimuli? For instance, if a questionnaire involves a short quiz, can their quiz be scored, and can they see their score at a later point in the experiment?

    Yes. MediaLab allows you to do this in a variety of ways. You can easily insert prior responses in later question wording. You can also use all the power of Excel to create formulas and calculations that you can apply during your session. The is an "Advanced Features" section in the manual that is worth checking out. MediaLab comes with a sample demonstrating advanced skips, calculations and feedback.

    Can you calculate scores from Direct RT data if you are running it as part of MediaLab?
