Time Limit Indication

[David McFarlane]

Rachna,

I would do this using "extended input" to cover the 8 s period.  Then 
set the Duration of the stimulus to 6 or 7 s, followed by some 
warning display (perhaps with a limited Frame so as not to cover the 
stimulus).  Etc.  If I used End Action Terminate then I would need 
some inline code between the stimulus and the warning in order to 
skip the warning in case a response came before the warning; or, if I 
used End Action Jump I might get it to jump past the warning after a 
response without using any code.

Start by working through Appendix C of the User's Guide that came 
with E-Prime in order to familiarize yourself with extended input, 
and take it from there.
