Subject: Random Photos
Message-ID: <MON.3.JUN.2013.064006.0700.>

I am designing a study where I need to put faces into a trial list and then 
randomly present them. I have done some work before with E-Prime and from 
what I have seen the only way you can randomize is through a Trial list. 
Therefore, how would I be able to put photos into the program and present 
them randomly.  I've read some pages about nested list but I still can't 
actually get the photo!

Thank you!!

-Mike

Subject: Space Bar of Keyboard recognized as response though Keyboard is
 not chosen as response device
Message-ID: <MON.3.JUN.2013.065208.0700.>

Dear all,
we encounter a strange problem: we created a slide in which responses are 
aloud only from the button-box. That is, the keyboard is not even chosen as 
a possible response device. Nevertheless, eprime accepts the spacebar as a 
possible response and terminates the slide with this response. Any idea why 
this happens/how to avoid this?
Thanks and best
Katrin

Dear Mike, I am sorry, but I don't see your problem. Normally, in a list,
you put under a stimulus attribute the name of a photo-file. Thus you
create as many lines of the list as you wanna have trials, filling them
with the filenames you attend to use.  Then you randomize this list. In the
trialprocedure in the pictureslide you then just have to refer to this
attribute (for example [picture]) (so where you would normally write the
name of the file, you now write [picture] and eprime will look in the
attribute of the trial it is running right now to determine the filename.
This is all very well explained in the Eprime basic help.. Or did I get
your question wrongly?
Best
Katrin

Subject: Annoying problem in the edat file
Message-ID: <MON.3.JUN.2013.091540.0700.>

Hi, I have a strange and terribly annoying problem in the edat file. 
Basically what happens is that the onsetToOnsetTime of one of the frame 
just stop recording. This happens after aroung 23/24/25 trials (not always 
the same!). For example, until the 22th trial everything is recorded 
correctly, from the 23th on the frame.onsetToOnsetTime is just 0.  All the 
trials are the same, and I didn't notice anything in particular that could 
trigger the strange behaviour in the 23th/24th/25th frame. I am REALLY 
confused! Plus, I am running some subjects and I really need that numbers 
there, so I also have a timing problem...
Do you have any idea?? I would be really grateful!
Best Regards,
Valerio

Subject: Creating a drop-down menu with options for subjects' responses?
Message-ID: <MON.3.JUN.2013.160016.0700.>

Greetings E-prime experts,

I am programming an experiment in E-prime 2.0 Professional, in which the 
optimal way to collect participants' responses would be to have them select 
1 out of 10 options from a drop-down menu.

(e.g., a subject needs to choose between "$10 in a week" or "$1 or $2 or $3 
... immediately." It is argued that offering selection from a drop-down 
menu promotes more careful consideration of each option.) 

The closest example I found in the E-prime Samples database on pstnet.com<http://www.pstnet.com/support/samples.asp> was 
the Visual Analog scale, which would enable on-screen presentation of all 
options simultaneously (e.g., as 10 individual boxes), and allow the 
subject to click on the box of their choice. However, my participants have 
clinical attention deficits, therefore presenting all options at once would 
be too distracting and is thus not a viable idea.

Is there a way to create a drop-down box? If not, what work-around 
solutions come to mind? 

One hypothetical idea I have is to create an in-line script pausing E-prime 
and allowing a switch to MS Excel (where I can create a drop down menu in a 
file) before returning to E-prime. The duration of such subject-paced pause 
would be a proxy (albeit very rough) for response latency.

I don't know whether it is even feasible. Does anyone have experience with 
such an approach? Alternatively, could anyone recommend a response 
collection software that would be better suited for building drop-down 
menus?
 
Any feedback or help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you kindly,
Yuliya Yoncheva

PS: So far the experiments I have programmed have focused on millisecond 
temporal precision on the presentation side (which I know is E-prime's 
strength), and not flexibility on the response collection interface (which 
I gather is not an emphasis in this particular software).

I know how to do all that I guess the only problem I am having is getting 
to photo in through the file name what should I be looking for to input the 
file? An address or the name of the file? Thanks so much for the reply!

Dear Mike, you have to put the filename in the listobject. Then the file
should be in the same folder than your experiment :)

Subject: Collect responses after target disappeared...?
Message-ID: <TUE.4.JUN.2013.065335.0700.>

Hello, 
I'm new to this group and also to e-prime software, so please excuse me if 
the question will sound simple to you...I tried to find a solution online 
without any results...
I'm creating my first experiment in e-prime and will be a continous 
performance test (CPT), a series of digits will be presented each one for 
200ms with a variable ISI between 800-2000 ms. Subject will have to press a 
button on a SRbox only to one specific digit (target ) while they don't 
have to press buttons to other digits. The problem is that the responses 
are not collected by EP after the duration of 200ms of the stimulus (I 
would like to allow a time limit of 800ms after the appearence of the 
target), I tried to extend timeLimit for the SRbox input but the response 
will not be recorded.
The experiment is divided in TrialList (list of digits presented in a 
random order), TrialProc with: Inline (to randomize the duration of 
fixation) / Fixation / Stimuli (with 200 of duration and timeLimit to 800 
but EP doesn't collect responses after the 200ms of the stimulus). Can you 
help me?
Thank you 
PM

Ciao PierCarlo,

Two possibilities come to my mind
a) why not just putting another slide of 800 ms length after your stimulus
slide. Just a black textslide I mean. Just make this slide also collect
responses, but terminate always after 800 ms. This has the disadvantage of
course that the trial does not end with the response. But maybe this is not
the problem
If it is a problem I would make a short movieclip instead of the
textslide-stimulus. That would mean filming a digit for the 200 ms (or
putting frames of a picture in a movieformat to fill 200 ms, and then add
another 800 ms of black in the movie. This movie can act as the stimulus
and you can make the slide end with the response of the subject. Was that
of any help?
Katrin

Thanks for your reply,
I tried to use slide after the target with a duration of 800ms showing a 
fixation point and I reduced the first fixation to 0-1200, in this way the 
subject will have 200ms of the stimulus + 800ms of the other slide to 
respond and it seems to work, but do I have to set time limit in the 
stimulus slide to 1000ms in order to allow a response in the stimulus slide 
(200 ms) and also in the next slide (800ms)? Will the reaction time be 
recorded also if the subject press the button during the stimulus or during 
the next slide?

method, I'm afraid (not even sure if that would be possible).

You could implement such an interface in eprime by using a series of bitmap
images that mimic a fancy GUI on subject responses. When a lot of different
images are required (because of dynamic content for example) you could also
use inline script to generate the screen contents. However, EPrime only
offers basic drawing support, so that might suboptimal. I sometimes combine
elementary graphics (drawn by inline script) with a fancy bitmap as
background image. If you would like to implement mouse-clicks (instead of
keyboard presses), you definitively have to deal with inline scripting.
(You could have a look at the following example script:
http://pfcgroot.nl/e-prime/84-full-scripts/74-tower-of-hanoi.html)

On the other hand: if timing is not extremely critical, you could also use
a more GUI-oriented programming environment (such as Visual Basic, or
something similar).

Best
Paul

You should just allow responses on both slides, you don't have to do
anything else. Then you will either get a Reaction time for the first or
for the second slide. In case two you would have to add 200 ms to make up
for that. Is that clear enough? Best

it is what I wrote in the first mail
you just create a new attribute

then, in each line you write the filename
for example pic1.jpg
and then you refer to that attribute in the slide showing the picture
it is also all explained in the basic eprime help

Hi Paul,

Thank you very much for your fast reply and for sharing your in-line 
scripts implementing The Tower of Hanoi task. This is a very valuable 
example.   
Temporal precision is not crucial so mimicking a GUI would sounds like the 
most reasonable approach using E-prime.

Thank you again. 
Best wishes, Yuliya

Subject: Creating blocks fulfilling multiple conditions simultaneously
Message-ID: <TUE.4.JUN.2013.132358.0700.>

Hi,

I am new to e-prime and am in the process of developing a project using it. 
As expected, I have run into a few problems which will be told later after 
I explain the experiment.

In essence, the experiment is quite simple and much easier than quite a few 
that I have read in previous posts. There are four different conditions: 
Same object same size (SOSS), same object different size (SODS), different 
object different size (DODS), and different object same size (DOSS). Also, 
across these conditions, there are four different objects: A, B, C, and D. 
For each object category there are 6 exemplars. The paradigm is a simple 
one-back task indicating if the two objects in the trial are same or not 
(Fixation --> Object 1 --> Mask --> object 2 --> mask --> response). Each 
block should contain 24 trials that have equal number of objects varying 
across the conditions. That is to say that each trial must have all four 
conditions but use equal amounts of objects within these conditions to 
fulfill that requirement. The sequence of presentation must all be 
randomized and counterbalanced.

For example, block 1 may have the following sequence depicting different 
conditions:

A (SOSS)
C (SODS)
D (SOSS)
B (DOSS)
D (DODS)
C (DOSS)
B (SODS)
A (DODS)

There would be three blocks like this one in a given set with randomized 
stimuli without repeats (total of 24 trials) and four different sets for a 
complete total of 96 trials. As you can see, each object within its 
respective condition only occurs once across the blocks. In total there are 
2 of each conditions and 2 of each objects but the combination of each 
occurs only once. 

When I try to program this in e-prime, I could randomize the selection of 
each object with their respective conditions and limit it to choosing only 
2 samples. However, I cannot ensure that across the 3 blocks the same 
object from the same condition does not show up. I know there must be 
someway to accomplish this in e-prime...only if knew :(

I hope the above makes sense....

Thanks for all your help.

Hi Katrin,
I currently can't activate SRBOX but was currently playing with device 
properties so it is fresh in my mind and might potentially be relevant.
If I activate "Keyboard" (Slide: Properties) there is an "Advanced" option 
which let's you select "Collection" where you could specify Response mode - 
alphanumeric only vs. all, and how Backspace is treated. Perhaps your SRBOX 
has similar options which could be modified? 
Cheers, Yuliya

Subject: counting response types separately then displaing the counts at
 the end of each block
Message-ID: <WED.5.JUN.2013.033554.0700.>

Hi all,
 In my experiment I have a condition called "Either" in a list object it is 
defined as "Cue" and presents an "E" on the screen to the subject. During 
this condition subjects can press either "n" or "b" on the keyboard. During 
each block I want to count the number of "n" responses and the number of 
"b" responses separately, then present the separate counts in a text object 
at the end of each block. 

I've pasted in the coding I've done here and hope that it makes some sense, 
please feel free to ask me questions if it does not. Here I create counting 
variables "count_n" and "count_b", set them to 0, then set the Attributes 
"total_n" and "total_b"which are scripted so that during the "Either" 
condition when "n" is selected "total_n" should reference "count_n" and add 
one (+1); when"b" is selected "total_b" should reference "count_b" and add 
one (+1). 

In the user script:
' Block choice variable
Dim count_n As Integer
Dim count_b As Integer
Dim total_n As Integer
Dim total_b As Integer 

In FirstTrialITI: (bit of Inline script, I believe it repeats after each 
trial)
count_n = 0
count_b = 0

In TMS: (InLine script that runs a block)
' choice_selection
count_n = count_n +1
count_b = count_b +1

If ((c.GetAttrib("Cue") = "E") And (currentresponse = ("n"))) Then 
c.SetAttrib "total_n", count_n
End If

If ((c.GetAttrib("Cue") = "E") And (currentresponse = ("b"))) Then 
c.SetAttrib "total_b", count_b
End If

I can see in the data file it creates columns for "total_b" and "total_n", 
but it counts them together!

total_b total_n
1 NULL
NULL 2
3 NULL

I also tried this piece of code, but "total_b" and "total_n" were still 
counted together:
If ((c.GetAttrib("Cue") = "E") And (currentresponse = ("n"))) Then 
c.SetAttrib "total_n", count_n
Else If ((c.GetAttrib("Cue") = "E") And (currentresponse = ("b"))) Then 
c.SetAttrib "total_b", count_b
End If
End If

Furthermore, when I try to present the separate counts in a text object at 
the end of each block by typing [total_b] and [total_n] Eprime says "no 
such attribute".

I hope this made some sense, but will answer any questions that you may 
have. Thanks a lot for any help. 
Best,

Subject: displaying response count at end of block
Message-ID: <WED.5.JUN.2013.064758.0700.>

Hi all,
 In my experiment there is a condition where the subject can choice between 
two responses (either "n" or "b" key presses). I want to keep track of how 
many times the participant selects each key (n or b) and present a total 
for each key type at the end of each block. I've inserted my code here 
showing how I am counting response selection. As you can see I am setting 
two separate attributes: c.SetAttrib "total_b" and c.SetAttrib "total_n". 
I've tried to reference these attributes later in a Text Object, but E 
prime says, "no such attribute". 

' choice_selection
If ((c.GetAttrib("Cue") = "E") And (currentresponse = ("n"))) Then
count_n = count_n +1 
Else If ((c.GetAttrib("Cue") = "E") And (currentresponse = ("b"))) Then
count_b = count_b +1 
End If
End If

If ((c.GetAttrib("Cue") = "E") And (currentresponse = ("n"))) Then
c.SetAttrib "total_n", count_n 
Else If ((c.GetAttrib("Cue") = "E") And (currentresponse = ("b"))) Then
c.SetAttrib "total_b", count_b 
End If
End If

If there is anything I can clarify please let me know. Thanks for your time 
and answers.
Best,
Kelsey

Subject: random w/o replacement is still replacing
Message-ID: <WED.5.JUN.2013.093953.0700.>

Hi all, 

I have a memory task that displays a series of images in different 
locations on the screen. The participant is expected to remember the image 
and its location, so when the images are pulled randomly from a nested 
list, the participant can match the image to the original location. 

The problem I am encountering involves the random pulling of images to be 
matched. I need this to happen without replacement, but even with the 
selection order set to 'random', I'm having at least one image being pulled 
twice and one image not pulled at all. 

I have no idea how to fix this problem. Is there anyone that can share some 
insight?
 
Thanks for the time,
Dazed & Confused (Diana)

Thank you so much for all your help! I figured it all out you were a great 
help!!! I just have one more question now if I have say 60 pictures 
appearing randomly and I want a question to appear after each one how would 
I do that? does it have to do with nesting list?

Thank you I promise this is my last question! :)

Hi Diana,

one possibility is that ResetList is set to a value lower than the 
number of items on the list that you want to sample.  If so it will 
sample without replacement until it reaches the value specified by 
ResetList at which point it will start over from the full list. This 
could produce the problem you describe.

Subject: Response bar updated by multiple presses
Message-ID: <THU.6.JUN.2013.090208.0700.>

 

Hi,

I hope someone can help and apologies in advance for my elementary coding 
skills.

I am trying to create a response bar (drawn by the canvas function) that is 
incrementally filled by each button press (each of the multiple button 
presses required for an individual trial). I have tried to combine the 
ScoreBar and MultipleResponseCollection sample scripts from the PST eprime 
support site. I want the number of presses required to be randomly 
determined by an attribute called MaxCount (which is set by RewardProb) at 
the beginning of each trial. Eventually, the duration of each trial will 
also vary depending on RewardProb (this bit works well in another script I 
have). 

I am attaching the script that I have so far. It seems to be partially 
working. When the number of presses set by the attribute MaxCount is 
reached, the trial terminates as it should, however, there is a substantial 
delay before the response bar starts filling. Also, I would like the canvas 
to be cleared of all images after each trial (because the next thing I am 
going to work on is making the size of the response bar variable on each 
trial). But for now, I would greatly appreciate any help with getting a 
response bar that fills with each press on a single trial and clears after 
the trial is finished. 

Many thanks in advance if you can help!

Hi Kelsey, 

Have you defined the attribute globally on the user tab of the generated 
script? To count across multiple blocks or reference the counter variable 
at the highest level of the task, you need to define the variable on the 
user tab of the script. I can send an example scirpt where I have used 
counter variables like these, if you like. 

Hope this helps, 
Holly

Hi Holly,
 Thanks for the question/help. 

In the user script I've already written:
Dim count_n As Integer
Dim count_b As Integer
Dim total_n As Integer
Dim total_b As Integer 

During an inter trial interval I set these counters to 0
count_n = 0
count_b = 0

Then of course the script I've posted already which runs during the main 
body of the experiment.
In the data file I can read something like this:
total_n     total_b
NULL      1
1             NULL
NULL     2 

So it is being recorded correctly in the data file. 

I hope this information makes  what I'm trying to do clearer. 
Best,
Kelsey

Hi Kelsey,

It sounds like you're running into a common problem people have with E-Prime: understanding the difference between variables and attributes. By defining something in the user script, you're declaring it as a variable, not an attribute. Attributes show up in lists and data files; variables don't. You also seem to have a scope issue on the attribute, which is making things more complicated. 

What's confusing here is that E-Prime is trying to help you out by creating attributes when you use c.setattrib -- so you now have a total_n attribute as well as a variable, and that's what gets logged in the data file. But that attrbiute only exists in the lowest-level list that's running when E-Prime creates it. I would guess that your attempt to display the counts is outside that list. Alternatively, if you didn't fall into that trap, you're trying to use the variable, which you've actually never assigned a value to. 

The first thing to try is to create an attribute in the list that's above the one you're setting the value in (the list that's running when you try to display the value at the end), and then let it set the value in that list. Or you could just keep track of those totals in the global variable you already have (if you don't care about logging as you go) and then log them in an inline after the list. 

HTH,
Susan

hi,

It seems that you now have a stimulus screen (with a static contents) that
stays on screen until all presses are collected. Then, when the Stimulus
object finishes, you start an inline script that processes all past button
presses. If you would like to update the bar immediately after each button
press, you need a different construct. I think it would be very similar to
the code I used in my VAS example script:
http://pfcgroot.nl/e-prime/83-example-scripts/80-visual-analogue-scale-example-for-e-prime.html
(look at the DragScale function). Also note that you should set the
duration of the Stimulus screen to zero, or set the prerelease to same as
duration.

Best
Paul

Hi Paul, 

Thanks for your reply and for sharing your VAS script. I seem to be having 
some trouble adding the VAS.epk2 package. When I go to Experiment Object 
Properties >> Add the package is not given as an option to be added. Do you 
have any suggestions? Is the package soemthing I have to purchase to 
activate? 

Many thanks for your help.

Subject: Logging multiple responses to one slide (key press and voice
 onset)
Message-ID: <SAT.8.JUN.2013.104418.0700.>

Dear Group:

First, I want E-Prime to log the response latency through the mic. That is, 
when the subject initiated speech. I designed my procedure so that the 
slide will not advance when the subject initiates speech. 

The other issue is that I also want E-Prime to record logging information 
for key press. I mentioned before that the subject's verbal response does 
not drive the procedure forward; rather, a key press initiates the next 
part of the experiment. Apparently the new version of E-Prime has an issue 
with capturing inputs from two different sources at the same point in the 
procedure (e.g., from the mic [SR BOX] and from the keyboard). When I have 
played around with this, I have noticed that the procedure just freezes-- 
the key press does not drive the procedure forward like it should. 

>From what I have read, you can log dual responses (from the mic and 
keyboard), but E-Prime only logs information from the last input (e.g., the 
keyboard in my case because that is what advances the procedure, and the 
key press occurs after the mic input). I have looked at the following two 
posts to see how to modify the script to log information from both inputs, 
but I haven't gotten it to work. 

http://www.pstnet.com/forum/Topic355-5-1.aspx

http://support.pstnet.com/forum/Topic474-8-1.aspx

Thank you for your help.   Let me know if there is anything else I can post 
that might be of assistance (e.g., aspects of the script).

Amy

Packages should first be added to the default package directory (My
Experiments/Packages), or put in a folder that you explicitly added to the
package folder search list in EStudio. Then restart estudio and add it to
your exp. However, to view the script I mentioned, you could open the
package in the package editor instead. (EStudio will only show the package
content only in the generated ebs-script.)

Hi Paul, 

Thanks so much for all of your help. I have been playing with your script 
and I think it will be very useful in redesigning my task. 

Thanks for sharing!

Subject: Accuracy Thresholds and Returning to Simpler Version if Those are
 not Reached
Message-ID: <MON.10.JUN.2013.045858.0700.>

I'm a relative E-Prime newbit and I'm currently writing a combined 
feature/conjunction search task. I was wondering if there's a facility 
within E-Prime to set some sort of accuracy threshold in the conjunction 
search blocks such that if those blocks are too hard for participants (i.e. 
accuracy doesn't reach a certain level), the task will revert to the 
feature search version?

Message-ID: <TUE.11.JUN.2013.012216.0700.>

Sorry Katrin,
you mean that in case of response during the second response slide (the 
fixation cross of 800ms) I would have to manually add 200ms to response 
time in the data? (in order to include the first 200ms slide on the total 
time of response). Is this the only possible method?
Thank you

well, what do you mean with manually? you will of course not change every

even do that with a copydemand in excel, right? Should take you not more

Subject: Programming a mid-way break when counterbalancing blocks by
 subject
Message-ID: <TUE.11.JUN.2013.124006.0700.>

Hi Everyone,

I have an E-Prime experiment with  2 experimental blocks counterbalanced by 
subject and a half-way break. Does anyone know a way to get the 
halfway-break appear between the two blocks regardless of the 
counterbalance order? Right now I have a break following Block 1 and a 
break following Block 2, which gives me an unnecessary break at the end of 
the experiment. The one option I can think of is to save two orders of the 
experiment (order 1: Block1, Block 2; Order2: Block2, Block1) on the 
computer and randomly assign participants to each. But there has got to be 
a more elegant way to make the mid-way break appear between the two blocks 
regardless of the counterbalance order. 

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 

Thank you.

Roxana

Subject: Some parellel port keys work, some don't
Message-ID: <THU.13.JUN.2013.032229.0700.>

Hey there,

I am using parallel port for response collection. My port ist &HD051 and I 
set a test slide to be terminated by ANY response made with the parallel 
port keys. That works fine with one device, but with another device id does 
not work at all.
Of course you may think that maybe the other one is broken. But a collegue 
of mine who is using "Presentation" software can use both just fine.

Any hint?
Best,
Tobias

Which pin's are you using for input? The 8 data lines are sensitive to the
port mode setting (Normal SPP, ECP, EPP). And what happens if you use a
ParallelPort device instead of a plain Port device? (I think you need
EP2-pro for this)

Hey, thanks.

I have E-Studio 2 Professional. I had a look at the control panel for the 
addresses of the parallel port and they are D050-D057 and D040-D047.

In E-Prime I have to specify the port and tried D050 first - which didn't 
work. Then I used D051 and it worked - but only for this one device. Not 
for another one.
I am not sure which pins/bits the buttons are using each, but it may be 
that the one device uses one different from the other device. I would like 
to tell E-Prime to use the entire port.

I don't know how to sepcify the port mode. I don't know the difference 
between ParallelPort device and plain Port device.
All I know is both devices I have here have 25 pins and 8 of them should be 
used to transfer the data, right?

Best,
Tobias

Well, it's rather essential to know which pins are being used because
different pins are mapped to different registers (i.e. different
addresses). There are three 8-bit registers: data (base address), status
(base address+1) and control (base address+2). The 25 pins are input,
output, or bidirectional. The directionality of the data pins depends on
the selected mode. For internal ports you can specify this mode using the
BIOS setup, but I'm not sure how you this can be done with ports that are
not integrated on the system board. The 8 data lines (which are mapped to
the base register) are by default used for output only, so they won't
accept any input unless you explicitly instruct the hardware to change its
mode. The nice thing about the new ParallelPort object is that you can use
the GUI to select input or output mode, without any further programming.
There are also other advantages:
http://www.pstnet.com/support/kb.asp?TopicID=1247. If your button box is
not wired to the data lines, then they are probably connected to the lines
that are mapped to the status register (i.e. base address+1). I don't think
you can use the ParallelPort device in this case, so you could simply fall
back to the Port device.

PS. Perhaps the attached TriggerMonitor script is of any use. You can
specify the input address in the startupinfo-file. This tool also has an
option to reroute the input to another output port (although you probably
won't use that feature.)

Subject: Video clips make program crash
Message-ID: <THU.13.JUN.2013.142746.0700.>

 

Hey all,

Our team has perused some of the group responses on issues with video 
files, but none seem to address the problems that we're experiencing. We 
are dealing with two codecs: XVID and tcs2 (camtasia). 

We are ripping a total of 12 one-minute video clips from various movies 
(e.g., Matilda, Harry Potter) using AoA DVD ripper and using Camtasia to 
standardize the volumes (we couldn't find a program that clipped videos AND 
allowed us to standardize volumes). 

Basically our task presents these 1 minute clips with an ITI of 10 seconds 
between each clip and presents some startle probes to the participants. Our 
problem is that the program crashes after playing some of the videos 
randomly, and it's been difficult to assess why it crashes at all.  

We've run our task on both Windows XP and Windows 7 and both have crashed. 

-In Windows XP, the program always seems to freeze on the last frame of 
video clips with an XVID or tcs2 (camtasia) codec - it doesn't seem to 
matter which codec it is. 

-In Windows 7, the program froze in between video clips 

We've tried playing around with the E-prime CodecConfig, but a lot of the 
error messages we've been getting say "Filter is not DMO", but we're unsure 
what that means. 


Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Subject: Integrated graphics and Intel Haswell processors
Message-ID: <THU.13.JUN.2013.152610.0700.>

Hi all,

Does anyone have thoughts on whether there might be any issues running 
e-prime with intel's new haswell processors and the integrated HD 4600 
graphics, or if there are any issues with integrated graphics in general? 

I've only ever run e-prime with discrete graphics cards and assumed I'd 
never do otherwise, but it's come time to replace some PCs and the HD 4600 
graphics seems powerful enough to meet our needs.


Thanks!

Sam

DMO stands for "*D*irectX *M*edia *O*bject". You can find technical 
information on this type of object in the MSDN, including this article 
explaining the difference between DMOs and DirectShow Filters:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa925317.aspx

In sum, I would say you do have some sort of codec problem on your 
machines. Can't say more, I rarely deal with E-Prime anymore.

Thanks a lot. That was really helpful. So I figured that the one device is 
using data, the other one is using status pins.
Apparently, &hd030 refers to data pins and &hd031 to status pins.
Similarly for the other parallel port, &hd050 refers to data pins and 
&hd051 to status pins.

This might also be helpful for others who try figuring out how to specify 
port settings in E-Prime.

I couldn't use your script, it seems to be made with a newer version than 
the one we have (2.0.8.90). But it works fine now so thanks a lot!

Best,
Tobias

Subject: Delay in offset
Message-ID: <SAT.15.JUN.2013.104541.0700.>

Dear all,

I have encountered a weird delay in offset for slides and text displays.

When I have such an object in the end of a procedure and there is only 
inlines computing some variables, there is a delay of about 1 sec or so. I 
used pretty much standard settings, duration -1, terminate and keyboard 
({ANY}) as input.
Whenever I pressed a key to end the slide/text display, it took an 
additional time until it terminated. I have not used PreRelease.

So I wanted to measure how much time exactly the delay takes. I inserted 
another object at the very end of the procedure so that I can compute 
SecondObject.OnsetTime - FirstObject.OnsetTime. Now what happened was that 
there was NO delay anymore and the first object immediately set off 
whenever I pressed a key.

This doesn't seem to be such a big problem since I can use a very 
time-limited second object (10 ms) tat wouldn't really disturb anything. 
Still it is quite a bit annyoing and I have encountered this problem before.

Let me know if you had similar trouble and/or know a solution.

Best,
Tobias

Message-ID: <MON.17.JUN.2013.091449.0000.>

Unfortunately this does look like a codec problem, we had similar unpredictable freezing performance using videos, which we eventually solved by (1) experimenting with a range of different codecs, and (2) removing all the extra video junk and using a clean reinstall of E-Prime.  In our case once we found a suitable codec that worked in E-Prime with our hardware, we didn't have to touch Codec Config. In fact once I stopped messing with Codec Config things went easier for me (ie, trying to change my codecs rather than trying to get E-Prime working with codecs it doesn't like).

We also preload videos before they are displayed, and incorporate more breaks than we usually would between sets of trials.  I am not sure whether this makes any difference but both seemed to reduce the incidence of freezing behaviour before we found a more stable codec configuration & we have kept both in place where possible.
*Our videos are all <10sec.

Suggestions - for trimming we have started using "Solveig MM AVI Trimmer + MKV" freeware

http://www.solveigmm.com/en/products/avi-trimmer-mkv/

This is a very simple editor that crucially does not do any re-encoding/decoding

Also if you are standardizing volumes, a possible alternative might be to split the audio and video tracks then standardize the audio levels using an audio-only package.  This does require combining the audio and video back together again which could cause its own range of problems.

Or, a different thought - if all you are doing is adjusting the volume of the audio for the videos, it might be possible to do this using the volume controls?  Such things are incompletely documented when it comes to video, but in many cases there are aspects of Movies that work the same as SoundOut.  In which case you could specify your desired Volume (Volume Control = yes) for each of the clips based on values you determined beforehand.  If this works it could allow you to avoid use of an extra codec step.  See reference guide section on SoundOut and see if it works for movies....

good luck!
david

Subject: Video clips make program crash

Hey all,
Our team has perused some of the group responses on issues with video files, but none seem to address the problems that we're experiencing. We are dealing with two codecs: XVID and tcs2 (camtasia).
We are ripping a total of 12 one-minute video clips from various movies (e.g., Matilda, Harry Potter) using AoA DVD ripper and using Camtasia to standardize the volumes (we couldn't find a program that clipped videos AND allowed us to standardize volumes).
Basically our task presents these 1 minute clips with an ITI of 10 seconds between each clip and presents some startle probes to the participants. Our problem is that the program crashes after playing some of the videos randomly, and it's been difficult to assess why it crashes at all.
We've run our task on both Windows XP and Windows 7 and both have crashed.
-In Windows XP, the program always seems to freeze on the last frame of video clips with an XVID or tcs2 (camtasia) codec - it doesn't seem to matter which codec it is.
-In Windows 7, the program froze in between video clips
We've tried playing around with the E-prime CodecConfig, but a lot of the error messages we've been getting say "Filter is not DMO", but we're unsure what that means.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Hi,
I need to set up a new experiment with 
the presentation of image and sound in the same time but with different

sound for 200ms
image for 50ms
Seems like that E-prime not allow to change in sub-properties object the 
duration
independently for image and sound keeping the synchronization. Any 
suggestion?

First of all, if you really want an image duration of 50 ms then make 
sure that you use a refresh rate that will accomodate that -- see 
Chapter 3 of the original User's Guide, or Chapter 4 of the revised one.

Now on to your question.  Put both image and sound on a Slide.  Set 
the Duration of the Slide to 50.  For the SlideSound sub-object, make 
sure you set Stop After to No.  Now the the sound will continue 
playing after the end of the Slide.  If the sound file contains 200 
ms of sound, the you should be done.  If the sound file contains more 
sound, then try using the SlideSound Stop Offset to limit the 
playback to 200 ms.

Message-ID: <TUE.18.JUN.2013.083142.0700.>

Hi all,
First I would really like to thank Paul for the script for the VAS it's 
great!
In my experiment I need to use the VAS both horizontally and vertically, 
and i need the needle starting position to be at the left and right edges 
(and not like Paul's VAS in the center).
For the horizontal VAS I managed to do it by adding another argument to 
VAS_DragScale so it looks like this:

Function VAS_DragScale(c As Context, strAttributeName as string, Optional 
duration as Variant, *Optional strSliderDirection as Variant*) as Integer

and than inside the function i added the following:

'set mouse cursor at left right or center position
    If IsMissing(strSliderDirection) then
        Mouse.SetCursorPos 
0.5*(VAS_SliderDummy.Left+VAS_SliderDummy.Right), VAS_SliderDummy.Bottom
    else
        if strSliderDirection = "left" then
            Mouse.SetCursorPos VAS_SliderDummy.Left, VAS_SliderDummy.Bottom
        else
            if strSliderDirection = "right" then
                Mouse.SetCursorPos VAS_SliderDummy.Right, 
VAS_SliderDummy.Bottom
            end if
        end if
    End If

and in the trials I use an inline to tell the needle where to start.
That went fine but when I try to implement it in the vertical VAS it always 
starts from the bottom of the slider dummy text object,
I guess it is got to do with the fact that to create the vertical vas I 
just changed the slide text object (VAS_SliderDummy) dimensions, in the 
script basically changes every X to Y and vice versa, and every 
Object.Right to Object.Bottom and every Object.Left to Object.Top .
So for example my changes to the script above looks like this:

'set mouse cursor at up down or center position
    If IsMissing(strSliderDirection1) then
        Mouse.SetCursorPos 
0.5*(VAS_SliderDummy.Bottom+VAS_SliderDummy.Top), VAS_SliderDummy.Left
    else
        if strSliderDirection1 = "top" then
            Mouse.SetCursorPos VAS_SliderDummy.Top, VAS_SliderDummy.Left
        else
            if strSliderDirection1 = "bottom" then
                Mouse.SetCursorPos VAS_SliderDummy.Bottom, 
VAS_SliderDummy.Left
            end if
        end if
    End If

As I mentioned it doesn't work.
If anyone got a clue I will be greatfull!
I attached the whole experiment if someone needs it and I would like to 
thank Paul again for the original script.

Hi,

Well, I'm not able to double check this right now, but SetCursosPos accepts
X,Y coordinates (in that order) by definition. Using Slider.Bottom for X
and Slider.Left for Y, etc. doesn't make sense...

Shouldn't it be something like this?:

            if strSliderDirection1 = "bottom" then
                Mouse.SetCursorPos VAS_SliderDummy.Left,
VAS_SliderDummy.Bottom
            end if

(using the keyboard works well, it is not a question of the sequence
Ideas?

Hello,

For each experimental trial, I am presenting a sound file and pictorial 
images simultaneously. Participants will be making a button box response 
upon hearing the sound file (while the images remain on the screen). I 
would like participants' response times to begin logging after the sound 
file ends. Is there anything I should do in my script to ensure this? The 
sound files vary in length.

Thank you,

Subject: Image Buttons Going To Labels
Message-ID: <WED.26.JUN.2013.130258.0700.>

Hello,
 
I am trying to create a slide with two buttons (made from images). One 
button (named Another) will take you back to the practice list and the 
other button (named Proceed) will proceed to the instructions for the first 
task.  If you click anywhere outside the buttons you will stay on the 
screen.
 
I have created a code that directs where you go via labels.  My code to 
stay on the screen works fine. The code that recognizes the images as 
buttons also works.  The problem I am running into is the locations that 
the buttons go to... 
 
With the current code when I click on both the "Another" and "Proceed" 
buttons I end up at Label 3.  I tried switching what image corresponds to 
each label (i.e. Another going to Label11 and Proceed going to Label3) to 
see if the problem was in the Elseif statement, but then both buttons ended 
up at Label11.
 
Would anyone know how to have each button go to their intended location?
 
 
Thank you,
 
Katie

Subject: Random Photos
Message-ID: <MON.3.JUN.2013.064006.0700.>

I am designing a study where I need to put faces into a trial list and then 
randomly present them. I have done some work before with E-Prime and from 
what I have seen the only way you can randomize is through a Trial list. 
Therefore, how would I be able to put photos into the program and present 
them randomly.  I've read some pages about nested list but I still can't 
actually get the photo!

Thank you!!

Message-ID: <MON.3.JUN.2013.065208.0700.>

Dear all,
we encounter a strange problem: we created a slide in which responses are 
aloud only from the button-box. That is, the keyboard is not even chosen as 
a possible response device. Nevertheless, eprime accepts the spacebar as a 
possible response and terminates the slide with this response. Any idea why 
this happens/how to avoid this?
Thanks and best
Katrin

Dear Mike, I am sorry, but I don't see your problem. Normally, in a list,
you put under a stimulus attribute the name of a photo-file. Thus you
create as many lines of the list as you wanna have trials, filling them
with the filenames you attend to use.  Then you randomize this list. In the
trialprocedure in the pictureslide you then just have to refer to this
attribute (for example [picture]) (so where you would normally write the
name of the file, you now write [picture] and eprime will look in the
attribute of the trial it is running right now to determine the filename.
This is all very well explained in the Eprime basic help.. Or did I get
your question wrongly?
Best
Katrin

Subject: Annoying problem in the edat file
Message-ID: <MON.3.JUN.2013.091540.0700.>

Hi, I have a strange and terribly annoying problem in the edat file. 
Basically what happens is that the onsetToOnsetTime of one of the frame 
just stop recording. This happens after aroung 23/24/25 trials (not always 
the same!). For example, until the 22th trial everything is recorded 
correctly, from the 23th on the frame.onsetToOnsetTime is just 0.  All the 
trials are the same, and I didn't notice anything in particular that could 
trigger the strange behaviour in the 23th/24th/25th frame. I am REALLY 
confused! Plus, I am running some subjects and I really need that numbers 
there, so I also have a timing problem...
Do you have any idea?? I would be really grateful!
Best Regards,
Valerio

Subject: Creating a drop-down menu with options for subjects' responses?
Message-ID: <MON.3.JUN.2013.160016.0700.>

Greetings E-prime experts,

I am programming an experiment in E-prime 2.0 Professional, in which the 
optimal way to collect participants' responses would be to have them select 
1 out of 10 options from a drop-down menu.

(e.g., a subject needs to choose between "$10 in a week" or "$1 or $2 or $3 
... immediately." It is argued that offering selection from a drop-down 
menu promotes more careful consideration of each option.) 

The closest example I found in the E-prime Samples database on pstnet.com<http://www.pstnet.com/support/samples.asp> was 
the Visual Analog scale, which would enable on-screen presentation of all 
options simultaneously (e.g., as 10 individual boxes), and allow the 
subject to click on the box of their choice. However, my participants have 
clinical attention deficits, therefore presenting all options at once would 
be too distracting and is thus not a viable idea.

Is there a way to create a drop-down box? If not, what work-around 
solutions come to mind? 

One hypothetical idea I have is to create an in-line script pausing E-prime 
and allowing a switch to MS Excel (where I can create a drop down menu in a 
file) before returning to E-prime. The duration of such subject-paced pause 
would be a proxy (albeit very rough) for response latency.

I don't know whether it is even feasible. Does anyone have experience with 
such an approach? Alternatively, could anyone recommend a response 
collection software that would be better suited for building drop-down 
menus?
 
Any feedback or help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you kindly,
Yuliya Yoncheva

PS: So far the experiments I have programmed have focused on millisecond 
temporal precision on the presentation side (which I know is E-prime's 
strength), and not flexibility on the response collection interface (which 
I gather is not an emphasis in this particular software).

Dear Mike, you have to put the filename in the listobject. Then the file
should be in the same folder than your experiment :)

Subject: Collect responses after target disappeared...?
Message-ID: <TUE.4.JUN.2013.065335.0700.>

Hello, 
I'm new to this group and also to e-prime software, so please excuse me if 
the question will sound simple to you...I tried to find a solution online 
without any results...
I'm creating my first experiment in e-prime and will be a continous 
performance test (CPT), a series of digits will be presented each one for 
200ms with a variable ISI between 800-2000 ms. Subject will have to press a 
button on a SRbox only to one specific digit (target ) while they don't 
have to press buttons to other digits. The problem is that the responses 
are not collected by EP after the duration of 200ms of the stimulus (I 
would like to allow a time limit of 800ms after the appearence of the 
target), I tried to extend timeLimit for the SRbox input but the response 
will not be recorded.
The experiment is divided in TrialList (list of digits presented in a 
random order), TrialProc with: Inline (to randomize the duration of 
fixation) / Fixation / Stimuli (with 200 of duration and timeLimit to 800 
but EP doesn't collect responses after the 200ms of the stimulus). Can you 
help me?
Thank you 
PM

Ciao PierCarlo,

Two possibilities come to my mind
a) why not just putting another slide of 800 ms length after your stimulus
slide. Just a black textslide I mean. Just make this slide also collect
responses, but terminate always after 800 ms. This has the disadvantage of
course that the trial does not end with the response. But maybe this is not
the problem
If it is a problem I would make a short movieclip instead of the
textslide-stimulus. That would mean filming a digit for the 200 ms (or
putting frames of a picture in a movieformat to fill 200 ms, and then add
another 800 ms of black in the movie. This movie can act as the stimulus
and you can make the slide end with the response of the subject. Was that
of any help?
Katrin

Thanks for your reply,
I tried to use slide after the target with a duration of 800ms showing a 
fixation point and I reduced the first fixation to 0-1200, in this way the 
subject will have 200ms of the stimulus + 800ms of the other slide to 
respond and it seems to work, but do I have to set time limit in the 
stimulus slide to 1000ms in order to allow a response in the stimulus slide 
(200 ms) and also in the next slide (800ms)? Will the reaction time be 
recorded also if the subject press the button during the stimulus or during 
the next slide?

Yuliya,

Linking another application (like excel) wouldn't be a very reliable
method, I'm afraid (not even sure if that would be possible).

You could implement such an interface in eprime by using a series of bitmap
images that mimic a fancy GUI on subject responses. When a lot of different
images are required (because of dynamic content for example) you could also
use inline script to generate the screen contents. However, EPrime only
offers basic drawing support, so that might suboptimal. I sometimes combine
elementary graphics (drawn by inline script) with a fancy bitmap as
background image. If you would like to implement mouse-clicks (instead of
keyboard presses), you definitively have to deal with inline scripting.
(You could have a look at the following example script:
http://pfcgroot.nl/e-prime/84-full-scripts/74-tower-of-hanoi.html)

On the other hand: if timing is not extremely critical, you could also use
a more GUI-oriented programming environment (such as Visual Basic, or
something similar).

Best
Paul

You should just allow responses on both slides, you don't have to do
anything else. Then you will either get a Reaction time for the first or
for the second slide. In case two you would have to add 200 ms to make up
for that. Is that clear enough? Best

you just create a new attribute

then, in each line you write the filename
for example pic1.jpg
and then you refer to that attribute in the slide showing the picture
it is also all explained in the basic eprime help

Hi Paul,

Thank you very much for your fast reply and for sharing your in-line 
scripts implementing The Tower of Hanoi task. This is a very valuable 
example.   
Temporal precision is not crucial so mimicking a GUI would sounds like the 
most reasonable approach using E-prime.

Thank you again. 
Best wishes, Yuliya

Subject: Creating blocks fulfilling multiple conditions simultaneously
Message-ID: <TUE.4.JUN.2013.132358.0700.>

Hi,

I am new to e-prime and am in the process of developing a project using it. 
As expected, I have run into a few problems which will be told later after 
I explain the experiment.

In essence, the experiment is quite simple and much easier than quite a few 
that I have read in previous posts. There are four different conditions: 
Same object same size (SOSS), same object different size (SODS), different 
object different size (DODS), and different object same size (DOSS). Also, 
across these conditions, there are four different objects: A, B, C, and D. 
For each object category there are 6 exemplars. The paradigm is a simple 
one-back task indicating if the two objects in the trial are same or not 
(Fixation --> Object 1 --> Mask --> object 2 --> mask --> response). Each 
block should contain 24 trials that have equal number of objects varying 
across the conditions. That is to say that each trial must have all four 
conditions but use equal amounts of objects within these conditions to 
fulfill that requirement. The sequence of presentation must all be 
randomized and counterbalanced.

For example, block 1 may have the following sequence depicting different 
conditions:

A (SOSS)
C (SODS)
D (SOSS)
B (DOSS)
D (DODS)
C (DOSS)
B (SODS)
A (DODS)

There would be three blocks like this one in a given set with randomized 
stimuli without repeats (total of 24 trials) and four different sets for a 
complete total of 96 trials. As you can see, each object within its 
respective condition only occurs once across the blocks. In total there are 
2 of each conditions and 2 of each objects but the combination of each 
occurs only once. 

When I try to program this in e-prime, I could randomize the selection of 
each object with their respective conditions and limit it to choosing only 
2 samples. However, I cannot ensure that across the 3 blocks the same 
object from the same condition does not show up. I know there must be 
someway to accomplish this in e-prime...only if knew :(

I hope the above makes sense....

Thanks for all your help.

Message-ID: <TUE.4.JUN.2013.150308.0700.>

Hi Katrin,
I currently can't activate SRBOX but was currently playing with device 
properties so it is fresh in my mind and might potentially be relevant.
If I activate "Keyboard" (Slide: Properties) there is an "Advanced" option 
which let's you select "Collection" where you could specify Response mode - 
alphanumeric only vs. all, and how Backspace is treated. Perhaps your SRBOX 
has similar options which could be modified? 
Cheers, Yuliya

Subject: counting response types separately then displaing the counts at
 the end of each block
Message-ID: <WED.5.JUN.2013.033554.0700.>

Hi all,
 In my experiment I have a condition called "Either" in a list object it is 
defined as "Cue" and presents an "E" on the screen to the subject. During 
this condition subjects can press either "n" or "b" on the keyboard. During 
each block I want to count the number of "n" responses and the number of 
"b" responses separately, then present the separate counts in a text object 
at the end of each block. 

I've pasted in the coding I've done here and hope that it makes some sense, 
please feel free to ask me questions if it does not. Here I create counting 
variables "count_n" and "count_b", set them to 0, then set the Attributes 
"total_n" and "total_b"which are scripted so that during the "Either" 
condition when "n" is selected "total_n" should reference "count_n" and add 
one (+1); when"b" is selected "total_b" should reference "count_b" and add 
one (+1). 

In the user script:
' Block choice variable
Dim count_n As Integer
Dim count_b As Integer
Dim total_n As Integer
Dim total_b As Integer 

In FirstTrialITI: (bit of Inline script, I believe it repeats after each 
trial)
count_n = 0
count_b = 0

In TMS: (InLine script that runs a block)
' choice_selection
count_n = count_n +1
count_b = count_b +1

If ((c.GetAttrib("Cue") = "E") And (currentresponse = ("n"))) Then 
c.SetAttrib "total_n", count_n
End If

If ((c.GetAttrib("Cue") = "E") And (currentresponse = ("b"))) Then 
c.SetAttrib "total_b", count_b
End If

I can see in the data file it creates columns for "total_b" and "total_n", 
but it counts them together!

total_b total_n
1 NULL
NULL 2
3 NULL

I also tried this piece of code, but "total_b" and "total_n" were still 
counted together:
If ((c.GetAttrib("Cue") = "E") And (currentresponse = ("n"))) Then 
c.SetAttrib "total_n", count_n
Else If ((c.GetAttrib("Cue") = "E") And (currentresponse = ("b"))) Then 
c.SetAttrib "total_b", count_b
End If
End If

Furthermore, when I try to present the separate counts in a text object at 
the end of each block by typing [total_b] and [total_n] Eprime says "no 
such attribute".

I hope this made some sense, but will answer any questions that you may 
have. Thanks a lot for any help. 
Best,
Kelsey

two responses (either "n" or "b" key presses). I want to keep track of how 
many times the participant selects each key (n or b) and present a total 
for each key type at the end of each block. I've inserted my code here 
showing how I am counting response selection. As you can see I am setting 
two separate attributes: c.SetAttrib "total_b" and c.SetAttrib "total_n". 
I've tried to reference these attributes later in a Text Object, but E 
prime says, "no such attribute". 

' choice_selection
If ((c.GetAttrib("Cue") = "E") And (currentresponse = ("n"))) Then
count_n = count_n +1 
Else If ((c.GetAttrib("Cue") = "E") And (currentresponse = ("b"))) Then
count_b = count_b +1 
End If
End If

If ((c.GetAttrib("Cue") = "E") And (currentresponse = ("n"))) Then
c.SetAttrib "total_n", count_n 
Else If ((c.GetAttrib("Cue") = "E") And (currentresponse = ("b"))) Then
c.SetAttrib "total_b", count_b 
End If
End If

If there is anything I can clarify please let me know. Thanks for your time 
and answers.
Best,
Kelsey

Subject: random w/o replacement is still replacing
Message-ID: <WED.5.JUN.2013.093953.0700.>

Hi all, 

I have a memory task that displays a series of images in different 
locations on the screen. The participant is expected to remember the image 
and its location, so when the images are pulled randomly from a nested 
list, the participant can match the image to the original location. 

The problem I am encountering involves the random pulling of images to be 
matched. I need this to happen without replacement, but even with the 
selection order set to 'random', I'm having at least one image being pulled 
twice and one image not pulled at all. 

I have no idea how to fix this problem. Is there anyone that can share some 
insight?
 
Thanks for the time,
Dazed & Confused (Diana)

Thank you so much for all your help! I figured it all out you were a great 
help!!! I just have one more question now if I have say 60 pictures 
appearing randomly and I want a question to appear after each one how would 
I do that? does it have to do with nesting list?

Thank you I promise this is my last question! :)

Hi Diana,

one possibility is that ResetList is set to a value lower than the 
number of items on the list that you want to sample.  If so it will 
sample without replacement until it reaches the value specified by 
ResetList at which point it will start over from the full list. This 
could produce the problem you describe.

Subject: Response bar updated by multiple presses
Message-ID: <THU.6.JUN.2013.090208.0700.>

 

Hi,

I hope someone can help and apologies in advance for my elementary coding 
skills.

I am trying to create a response bar (drawn by the canvas function) that is 
incrementally filled by each button press (each of the multiple button 
presses required for an individual trial). I have tried to combine the 
ScoreBar and MultipleResponseCollection sample scripts from the PST eprime 
support site. I want the number of presses required to be randomly 
determined by an attribute called MaxCount (which is set by RewardProb) at 
the beginning of each trial. Eventually, the duration of each trial will 
also vary depending on RewardProb (this bit works well in another script I 
have). 

I am attaching the script that I have so far. It seems to be partially 
working. When the number of presses set by the attribute MaxCount is 
reached, the trial terminates as it should, however, there is a substantial 
delay before the response bar starts filling. Also, I would like the canvas 
to be cleared of all images after each trial (because the next thing I am 
going to work on is making the size of the response bar variable on each 
trial). But for now, I would greatly appreciate any help with getting a 
response bar that fills with each press on a single trial and clears after 
the trial is finished. 

Many thanks in advance if you can help!

Hi Kelsey, 

Have you defined the attribute globally on the user tab of the generated 
script? To count across multiple blocks or reference the counter variable 
at the highest level of the task, you need to define the variable on the 
user tab of the script. I can send an example scirpt where I have used 
counter variables like these, if you like. 

Hope this helps, 
Holly

Hi Holly,
 Thanks for the question/help. 

In the user script I've already written:
Dim count_n As Integer
Dim count_b As Integer
Dim total_n As Integer
Dim total_b As Integer 

During an inter trial interval I set these counters to 0
count_n = 0
count_b = 0

Then of course the script I've posted already which runs during the main 
body of the experiment.
In the data file I can read something like this:
total_n     total_b
NULL      1
1             NULL
NULL     2 

So it is being recorded correctly in the data file. 

I hope this information makes  what I'm trying to do clearer. 
Best,
Kelsey

Hi Kelsey,

It sounds like you're running into a common problem people have with E-Prime: understanding the difference between variables and attributes. By defining something in the user script, you're declaring it as a variable, not an attribute. Attributes show up in lists and data files; variables don't. You also seem to have a scope issue on the attribute, which is making things more complicated. 

What's confusing here is that E-Prime is trying to help you out by creating attributes when you use c.setattrib -- so you now have a total_n attribute as well as a variable, and that's what gets logged in the data file. But that attrbiute only exists in the lowest-level list that's running when E-Prime creates it. I would guess that your attempt to display the counts is outside that list. Alternatively, if you didn't fall into that trap, you're trying to use the variable, which you've actually never assigned a value to. 

The first thing to try is to create an attribute in the list that's above the one you're setting the value in (the list that's running when you try to display the value at the end), and then let it set the value in that list. Or you could just keep track of those totals in the global variable you already have (if you don't care about logging as you go) and then log them in an inline after the list. 

HTH,
Susan

hi,

It seems that you now have a stimulus screen (with a static contents) that
stays on screen until all presses are collected. Then, when the Stimulus
object finishes, you start an inline script that processes all past button
presses. If you would like to update the bar immediately after each button
press, you need a different construct. I think it would be very similar to
the code I used in my VAS example script:
http://pfcgroot.nl/e-prime/83-example-scripts/80-visual-analogue-scale-example-for-e-prime.html
(look at the DragScale function). Also note that you should set the
duration of the Stimulus screen to zero, or set the prerelease to same as
duration.

Best
Paul

Hi Paul, 

Thanks for your reply and for sharing your VAS script. I seem to be having 
some trouble adding the VAS.epk2 package. When I go to Experiment Object 
Properties >> Add the package is not given as an option to be added. Do you 
have any suggestions? Is the package soemthing I have to purchase to 
activate? 

Many thanks for your help.

Subject: Logging multiple responses to one slide (key press and voice
 onset)
Message-ID: <SAT.8.JUN.2013.104418.0700.>

Dear Group:

First, I want E-Prime to log the response latency through the mic. That is, 
when the subject initiated speech. I designed my procedure so that the 
slide will not advance when the subject initiates speech. 

The other issue is that I also want E-Prime to record logging information 
for key press. I mentioned before that the subject's verbal response does 
not drive the procedure forward; rather, a key press initiates the next 
part of the experiment. Apparently the new version of E-Prime has an issue 
with capturing inputs from two different sources at the same point in the 
procedure (e.g., from the mic [SR BOX] and from the keyboard). When I have 
played around with this, I have noticed that the procedure just freezes-- 
the key press does not drive the procedure forward like it should. 

>From what I have read, you can log dual responses (from the mic and 
keyboard), but E-Prime only logs information from the last input (e.g., the 
keyboard in my case because that is what advances the procedure, and the 
key press occurs after the mic input). I have looked at the following two 
posts to see how to modify the script to log information from both inputs, 
but I haven't gotten it to work. 

http://www.pstnet.com/forum/Topic355-5-1.aspx

http://support.pstnet.com/forum/Topic474-8-1.aspx

Thank you for your help.   Let me know if there is anything else I can post 
that might be of assistance (e.g., aspects of the script).

Amy

Packages should first be added to the default package directory (My
Experiments/Packages), or put in a folder that you explicitly added to the
package folder search list in EStudio. Then restart estudio and add it to
your exp. However, to view the script I mentioned, you could open the
package in the package editor instead. (EStudio will only show the package
content only in the generated ebs-script.)

Hi Paul, 

Thanks so much for all of your help. I have been playing with your script 
and I think it will be very useful in redesigning my task. 

Thanks for sharing!

Subject: Accuracy Thresholds and Returning to Simpler Version if Those are
 not Reached
Message-ID: <MON.10.JUN.2013.045858.0700.>

I'm a relative E-Prime newbit and I'm currently writing a combined 
feature/conjunction search task. I was wondering if there's a facility 
within E-Prime to set some sort of accuracy threshold in the conjunction 
search blocks such that if those blocks are too hard for participants (i.e. 
accuracy doesn't reach a certain level), the task will revert to the 
feature search version?

Message-ID: <TUE.11.JUN.2013.012216.0700.>

Sorry Katrin,
you mean that in case of response during the second response slide (the 
fixation cross of 800ms) I would have to manually add 200ms to response 
time in the data? (in order to include the first 200ms slide on the total 
time of response). Is this the only possible method?
Thank you
PM

well, what do you mean with manually? you will of course not change every
number by hand, but either program that later in the database, or you can
even do that with a copydemand in excel, right? Should take you not more
than a few seconds...

Subject: Programming a mid-way break when counterbalancing blocks by
 subject
Message-ID: <TUE.11.JUN.2013.124006.0700.>

Hi Everyone,

I have an E-Prime experiment with  2 experimental blocks counterbalanced by 
subject and a half-way break. Does anyone know a way to get the 
halfway-break appear between the two blocks regardless of the 
counterbalance order? Right now I have a break following Block 1 and a 
break following Block 2, which gives me an unnecessary break at the end of 
the experiment. The one option I can think of is to save two orders of the 
experiment (order 1: Block1, Block 2; Order2: Block2, Block1) on the 
computer and randomly assign participants to each. But there has got to be 
a more elegant way to make the mid-way break appear between the two blocks 
regardless of the counterbalance order. 

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 

Thank you.

Roxana

Subject: Some parellel port keys work, some don't
Message-ID: <THU.13.JUN.2013.032229.0700.>

Hey there,

I am using parallel port for response collection. My port ist &HD051 and I 
set a test slide to be terminated by ANY response made with the parallel 
port keys. That works fine with one device, but with another device id does 
not work at all.
Of course you may think that maybe the other one is broken. But a collegue 
of mine who is using "Presentation" software can use both just fine.

Any hint?
Best,
Tobias

Which pin's are you using for input? The 8 data lines are sensitive to the
port mode setting (Normal SPP, ECP, EPP). And what happens if you use a
ParallelPort device instead of a plain Port device? (I think you need
EP2-pro for this)

Hey, thanks.

I have E-Studio 2 Professional. I had a look at the control panel for the 
addresses of the parallel port and they are D050-D057 and D040-D047.

In E-Prime I have to specify the port and tried D050 first - which didn't 
work. Then I used D051 and it worked - but only for this one device. Not 
for another one.
I am not sure which pins/bits the buttons are using each, but it may be 
that the one device uses one different from the other device. I would like 
to tell E-Prime to use the entire port.

I don't know how to sepcify the port mode. I don't know the difference 
between ParallelPort device and plain Port device.
All I know is both devices I have here have 25 pins and 8 of them should be 
used to transfer the data, right?

Best,
Tobias

Well, it's rather essential to know which pins are being used because
different pins are mapped to different registers (i.e. different
addresses). There are three 8-bit registers: data (base address), status
(base address+1) and control (base address+2). The 25 pins are input,
output, or bidirectional. The directionality of the data pins depends on
the selected mode. For internal ports you can specify this mode using the
BIOS setup, but I'm not sure how you this can be done with ports that are
not integrated on the system board. The 8 data lines (which are mapped to
the base register) are by default used for output only, so they won't
accept any input unless you explicitly instruct the hardware to change its
mode. The nice thing about the new ParallelPort object is that you can use
the GUI to select input or output mode, without any further programming.
There are also other advantages:
http://www.pstnet.com/support/kb.asp?TopicID=1247. If your button box is
not wired to the data lines, then they are probably connected to the lines
that are mapped to the status register (i.e. base address+1). I don't think
you can use the ParallelPort device in this case, so you could simply fall
back to the Port device.

PS. Perhaps the attached TriggerMonitor script is of any use. You can
specify the input address in the startupinfo-file. This tool also has an
option to reroute the input to another output port (although you probably
won't use that feature.)

Subject: Video clips make program crash
Message-ID: <THU.13.JUN.2013.142746.0700.>

 

Hey all,

Our team has perused some of the group responses on issues with video 
files, but none seem to address the problems that we're experiencing. We 
are dealing with two codecs: XVID and tcs2 (camtasia). 

We are ripping a total of 12 one-minute video clips from various movies 
(e.g., Matilda, Harry Potter) using AoA DVD ripper and using Camtasia to 
standardize the volumes (we couldn't find a program that clipped videos AND 
allowed us to standardize volumes). 

Basically our task presents these 1 minute clips with an ITI of 10 seconds 
between each clip and presents some startle probes to the participants. Our 
problem is that the program crashes after playing some of the videos 
randomly, and it's been difficult to assess why it crashes at all.  

We've run our task on both Windows XP and Windows 7 and both have crashed. 

-In Windows XP, the program always seems to freeze on the last frame of 
video clips with an XVID or tcs2 (camtasia) codec - it doesn't seem to 
matter which codec it is. 

-In Windows 7, the program froze in between video clips 

We've tried playing around with the E-prime CodecConfig, but a lot of the 
error messages we've been getting say "Filter is not DMO", but we're unsure 
what that means. 


Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Subject: Integrated graphics and Intel Haswell processors
Message-ID: <THU.13.JUN.2013.152610.0700.>

Hi all,

Does anyone have thoughts on whether there might be any issues running 
e-prime with intel's new haswell processors and the integrated HD 4600 
graphics, or if there are any issues with integrated graphics in general? 

I've only ever run e-prime with discrete graphics cards and assumed I'd 
never do otherwise, but it's come time to replace some PCs and the HD 4600 
graphics seems powerful enough to meet our needs.


Thanks!

Sam

DMO stands for "*D*irectX *M*edia *O*bject". You can find technical 
information on this type of object in the MSDN, including this article 
explaining the difference between DMOs and DirectShow Filters:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa925317.aspx

In sum, I would say you do have some sort of codec problem on your 
machines. Can't say more, I rarely deal with E-Prime anymore.

Thanks a lot. That was really helpful. So I figured that the one device is 
using data, the other one is using status pins.
Apparently, &hd030 refers to data pins and &hd031 to status pins.
Similarly for the other parallel port, &hd050 refers to data pins and 
&hd051 to status pins.

This might also be helpful for others who try figuring out how to specify 
port settings in E-Prime.

I couldn't use your script, it seems to be made with a newer version than 
the one we have (2.0.8.90). But it works fine now so thanks a lot!

Best,
Tobias

Subject: Delay in offset
Message-ID: <SAT.15.JUN.2013.104541.0700.>

Dear all,

I have encountered a weird delay in offset for slides and text displays.

When I have such an object in the end of a procedure and there is only 
inlines computing some variables, there is a delay of about 1 sec or so. I 
used pretty much standard settings, duration -1, terminate and keyboard 
({ANY}) as input.
Whenever I pressed a key to end the slide/text display, it took an 
additional time until it terminated. I have not used PreRelease.

So I wanted to measure how much time exactly the delay takes. I inserted 
another object at the very end of the procedure so that I can compute 
SecondObject.OnsetTime - FirstObject.OnsetTime. Now what happened was that 
there was NO delay anymore and the first object immediately set off 
whenever I pressed a key.

This doesn't seem to be such a big problem since I can use a very 
time-limited second object (10 ms) tat wouldn't really disturb anything. 
Still it is quite a bit annyoing and I have encountered this problem before.

Let me know if you had similar trouble and/or know a solution.

Best,
Tobias

Message-ID: <MON.17.JUN.2013.091449.0000.>

Unfortunately this does look like a codec problem, we had similar unpredictable freezing performance using videos, which we eventually solved by (1) experimenting with a range of different codecs, and (2) removing all the extra video junk and using a clean reinstall of E-Prime.  In our case once we found a suitable codec that worked in E-Prime with our hardware, we didn't have to touch Codec Config. In fact once I stopped messing with Codec Config things went easier for me (ie, trying to change my codecs rather than trying to get E-Prime working with codecs it doesn't like).

We also preload videos before they are displayed, and incorporate more breaks than we usually would between sets of trials.  I am not sure whether this makes any difference but both seemed to reduce the incidence of freezing behaviour before we found a more stable codec configuration & we have kept both in place where possible.
*Our videos are all <10sec.

Suggestions - for trimming we have started using "Solveig MM AVI Trimmer + MKV" freeware

http://www.solveigmm.com/en/products/avi-trimmer-mkv/

This is a very simple editor that crucially does not do any re-encoding/decoding

Also if you are standardizing volumes, a possible alternative might be to split the audio and video tracks then standardize the audio levels using an audio-only package.  This does require combining the audio and video back together again which could cause its own range of problems.

Or, a different thought - if all you are doing is adjusting the volume of the audio for the videos, it might be possible to do this using the volume controls?  Such things are incompletely documented when it comes to video, but in many cases there are aspects of Movies that work the same as SoundOut.  In which case you could specify your desired Volume (Volume Control = yes) for each of the clips based on values you determined beforehand.  If this works it could allow you to avoid use of an extra codec step.  See reference guide section on SoundOut and see if it works for movies....

good luck!
david

Hey all,
Our team has perused some of the group responses on issues with video files, but none seem to address the problems that we're experiencing. We are dealing with two codecs: XVID and tcs2 (camtasia).
We are ripping a total of 12 one-minute video clips from various movies (e.g., Matilda, Harry Potter) using AoA DVD ripper and using Camtasia to standardize the volumes (we couldn't find a program that clipped videos AND allowed us to standardize volumes).
Basically our task presents these 1 minute clips with an ITI of 10 seconds between each clip and presents some startle probes to the participants. Our problem is that the program crashes after playing some of the videos randomly, and it's been difficult to assess why it crashes at all.
We've run our task on both Windows XP and Windows 7 and both have crashed.
-In Windows XP, the program always seems to freeze on the last frame of video clips with an XVID or tcs2 (camtasia) codec - it doesn't seem to matter which codec it is.
-In Windows 7, the program froze in between video clips
We've tried playing around with the E-prime CodecConfig, but a lot of the error messages we've been getting say "Filter is not DMO", but we're unsure what that means.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Hi,
I need to set up a new experiment with

Seems like that E-prime not allow to change in sub-properties object the

independently for image and sound keeping the synchronization. Any 
suggestion?

First of all, if you really want an image duration of 50 ms then make 
sure that you use a refresh rate that will accomodate that -- see 
Chapter 3 of the original User's Guide, or Chapter 4 of the revised one.

Now on to your question.  Put both image and sound on a Slide.  Set 
the Duration of the Slide to 50.  For the SlideSound sub-object, make 
sure you set Stop After to No.  Now the the sound will continue 
playing after the end of the Slide.  If the sound file contains 200 
ms of sound, the you should be done.  If the sound file contains more 
sound, then try using the SlideSound Stop Offset to limit the 
playback to 200 ms.

Subject: Unable to set the VAS (Paul Groot VAS with changes) needle
 direction when the scale is vertical
Message-ID: <TUE.18.JUN.2013.083142.0700.>

Hi all,
First I would really like to thank Paul for the script for the VAS it's 
great!
In my experiment I need to use the VAS both horizontally and vertically, 
and i need the needle starting position to be at the left and right edges 
(and not like Paul's VAS in the center).
For the horizontal VAS I managed to do it by adding another argument to 
VAS_DragScale so it looks like this:

Function VAS_DragScale(c As Context, strAttributeName as string, Optional 
duration as Variant, *Optional strSliderDirection as Variant*) as Integer

and than inside the function i added the following:

'set mouse cursor at left right or center position
    If IsMissing(strSliderDirection) then
        Mouse.SetCursorPos 
0.5*(VAS_SliderDummy.Left+VAS_SliderDummy.Right), VAS_SliderDummy.Bottom
    else
        if strSliderDirection = "left" then
            Mouse.SetCursorPos VAS_SliderDummy.Left, VAS_SliderDummy.Bottom
        else
            if strSliderDirection = "right" then
                Mouse.SetCursorPos VAS_SliderDummy.Right, 
VAS_SliderDummy.Bottom
            end if
        end if
    End If

and in the trials I use an inline to tell the needle where to start.
That went fine but when I try to implement it in the vertical VAS it always 
starts from the bottom of the slider dummy text object,
I guess it is got to do with the fact that to create the vertical vas I 
just changed the slide text object (VAS_SliderDummy) dimensions, in the 
script basically changes every X to Y and vice versa, and every 
Object.Right to Object.Bottom and every Object.Left to Object.Top .
So for example my changes to the script above looks like this:

'set mouse cursor at up down or center position
    If IsMissing(strSliderDirection1) then
        Mouse.SetCursorPos 
0.5*(VAS_SliderDummy.Bottom+VAS_SliderDummy.Top), VAS_SliderDummy.Left

        if strSliderDirection1 = "top" then
            Mouse.SetCursorPos VAS_SliderDummy.Top, VAS_SliderDummy.Left
        else
            if strSliderDirection1 = "bottom" then
                Mouse.SetCursorPos VAS_SliderDummy.Bottom, 
VAS_SliderDummy.Left
            end if
        end if
    End If

As I mentioned it doesn't work.
If anyone got a clue I will be greatfull!
I attached the whole experiment if someone needs it and I would like to 
thank Paul again for the original script.

Subject: Unable to set the VAS (Paul Groot VAS with changes) needle
 direction when the scale is vertical

Hi,

Well, I'm not able to double check this right now, but SetCursosPos accepts
X,Y coordinates (in that order) by definition. Using Slider.Bottom for X
and Slider.Left for Y, etc. doesn't make sense...

Shouldn't it be something like this?:

            if strSliderDirection1 = "bottom" then
                Mouse.SetCursorPos VAS_SliderDummy.Left,
VAS_SliderDummy.Bottom
            end if

Hello everyone
I wanted to know if someone could help me. In my experiment I need to use 
mitts to record the responses, I'm adding SRBOX in experiment and in each 
stimulus. But it gives me error, seems to not detect it. Although working properly. 
(using the keyboard works well, it is not a question of the sequence
Ideas?

Subject: Logging response times after stimulus presentation
Message-ID: <WED.26.JUN.2013.123341.0700.>

Hello,

For each experimental trial, I am presenting a sound file and pictorial 
images simultaneously. Participants will be making a button box response 
upon hearing the sound file (while the images remain on the screen). I 
would like participants' response times to begin logging after the sound 
file ends. Is there anything I should do in my script to ensure this? The 
sound files vary in length.

Thank you,
Christina

Subject: Image Buttons Going To Labels
Message-ID: <WED.26.JUN.2013.130258.0700.>

Hello,
 
I am trying to create a slide with two buttons (made from images). One 
button (named Another) will take you back to the practice list and the 
other button (named Proceed) will proceed to the instructions for the first 
task.  If you click anywhere outside the buttons you will stay on the 
screen.
 
I have created a code that directs where you go via labels.  My code to 
stay on the screen works fine. The code that recognizes the images as 
buttons also works.  The problem I am running into is the locations that 
the buttons go to... 
 
With the current code when I click on both the "Another" and "Proceed" 
buttons I end up at Label 3.  I tried switching what image corresponds to 
each label (i.e. Another going to Label11 and Proceed going to Label3) to 
see if the problem was in the Elseif statement, but then both buttons ended 
up at Label11.
 
Would anyone know how to have each button go to their intended location?
 
 
Thank you,
 
Katie
