Multiple Choice Questions

[Anne-Wil]

Hi Dominic,

The details depend a bit on your exact needs, but the general set-up would 
be to have 4 (or whatever amount of options you'd have) textboxes on a 
slide that people can click on and then reading out the name of the textbox 
that was clicked on with a piece of script known as 'dohittest'. I paste 
'dohittest' under this message. The original script (embedded in an estudio 
file) can be downloaded at the PST website: 
http://support.pstnet.com/support/samples.asp?Mode=View&SampleID=5 .

Good luck,

Anne-Wil 


*********** 
'Designate "theState" as the Default Slide State, which is the 
'current, ActiveState on the Slide object "Stimulus" 
Dim theState as SlideState 
Set theState = ENTERNAMEOFSLIDEHERE.States("
Default") 

Dim strHit As String 
Dim theMouseResponseData As MouseResponseData 


'Was there a response? 
If  ENTERNAMEOFSLIDEHERE.InputMasks.Responses.Count > 0 Then 

'Get the mouse response 
Set theMouseResponseData = 
CMouseResponseData( ENTERNAMEOFSLIDEHERE.InputMasks.Responses(1)) 

'Determine string name of SlideImage or SlideText object at 
'mouse click coordinates. Assign that value to strHit 
strHit = theState.HitTest(theMouseResponseData.CursorX, 
theMouseResponseData.CursorY) 

'Compare string name where mouse click occurred to CorrectAnswer 
'attribute on each trial, and score response 
'NOTE: This comparison is case sensitive 

If strHit = c.GetAttrib("Correctresp") Then 
ENTERNAMEOFSLIDEHERE.ACC = 1 
Else 
ENTERNAMEOFSLIDEHERE.ACC = 0 
End If 


End If 
c.SetAttrib "response", strHit
