Trouble with incorrect responses

[jarvis24]

[edited from support email]
We are creating a Stroop Task that will require participants to hit the correct response before proceeding to the next trial. We created the stroop file and included an incorrect.txt file in the session folder. When we run the file, the session ends as soon as we provide the incorrect response rather than just displaying the X and the target stimulus until we get it right. Do you know what we're doing wrong?

Two things. First, you need to actually list the incorrect responses as valid keys, otherwise DirectRT will ignore them. So, for example, instead of:

rt:203

rt:205

rt:208

rt:200

try:

rt:203,200,205,208

rt:205,200,203,208

rt:208,200,203,205

rt:200,203,205,208

That would explain why you don't get the X. The other question is why it is ending. I think it's because you have a conflict--on the one hand you are asking that a correct response be given no matter what. On the other hand yoiu have a min-max value in your style file of 50-3000! indicating that the trial should continue after 3000ms, no matter what. In fact, if you change the min-max value to simply 50-3000 (i.e., no "!"), or 0, then the problem goes away. Let me know if that resolves it.
