Dear Jeremy,
Thank you for your kind answer as always. I’ve went through what we’ve discussed and I wasn’t able to notice before that the 4000 timeout trial had, indeed, the same formula as the original paper had (D1 + D2 + D3 + DRt + DWait = 4000 equals DWait = 3500 – D1 – DRT), I’m so sorry I took your time for trying to explaining that to me, but I really appreaciate your kindness, so, thank you once more. and thank you more going over the alternative method, I didn’t have a clue about using the Java option, so i’m sure that will contribuite for my future codes! I’ve already updated the whole model with the 4000 timeout approach, I only have 2 final concerns:
In order to use this approach to the practice trial, I’ve ajusted the Wait timer to 6000, not 4000, since the feedback takes 2000ms, like this:
//////////////////////////////////////////trial_1 - no_cue// PARA CIMA/LEFT//////////////////////////////////////////////////////

It seems to me that it’s working just fine, I’d just like to check if the math is right, is it?
Btw, I wasn’t able to fiz the “come back” button as you’ve explained me to do, it keeps on duplicating the trials, I’m sure I’ve did something wrong, but I don’t know what:
newText("instructions-14","<p><center> Se você quiser praticar de novo, clique aqui:")
.cssContainer({
"font-size":"22px",
"text-align": "center"
})
.center()
.print()
,
newVar("practiceRTs").set( [] ) // --------------------------------- here (I've tried to put it before the jumping inside the callback(), but it didn't work too (I probably did sth wrong, though)
,
newButton("come back","PRATICAR DE NOVO")
.callback(jump(startsWith("p_trial")) , end() )
.css("margin","1.5em")
.center()
.print()
best,
