Thanks, David. That worked like a charm.<br><br>On Wednesday, July 3, 2013 12:15:12 PM UTC-4, McFarlane, David wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0;margin-left: 0.8ex;border-left: 1px #ccc solid;padding-left: 1ex;">Christina,

<br>I would try the following:
<br>
<br>Make a Slide with both the image and the sound. Set Duration to
<br>"(infinite)", and End Sound Action on the SlideSound sub-object to
<br>"Terminate". This will run the Slide until the end of the sound. Do
<br>not use an input mask here.
<br>
<br>Follow this with a Wait object to collect the response, using
<br>appropriate Duration, input mask etc. Your image will remain on the
<br>display while the Wait object runs & collects the response. (I think
<br>of Wait objects as "null" stimuli and use them primarily when I want
<br>to get a response without presenting a stimulus.)
<br>
<br>That should do it.
