Reply To: Logging key press for each trial within template?

Hi,

The identifier and video file are already logged as extra columns in the code that you posted. As far as I can tell, there is a single response time in that code, which corresponds to how much time elapsed since the beginning of the timer and when the participant presses space. So you could add a Var element to log the response time as an extra column like this:

Template( "eCIDEx.csv" , row => 
    newTrial("Experiment1",
        newText(row.identifier)
            .css("font-size", "2.5em")
            .css("text-align", "center")
            .settings.center()
            .print()
            .log()
        ,
        newVideo(row.videofile)
            .size("60vw", "auto")
            .settings.center()
            .print()
            .play()
            .disable(0.01)
            .log()
        ,
        newVar("RT").global().set( () => Date.now() )
        ,
        newTimer("7.2s", 7200).start()
        ,
        newKey(" ").log("last").callback( getTimer("7.2s").stop() )
        ,
        getTimer("7.2s").wait()
        ,
        getVar("RT").set( v => Date.now() - v )
        ,
        getVideo(row.videofile).remove()
        ,
        newImage("Fix", "Focus_Point.jpg")
            .center()
            .print("middle at 50%", "middle at 50%")
        ,
        newTimer("Timer1", 1000).start().wait()
    )
    .log("id", getVar("subjID"))
    .log("identifier", row.identifier)
    .log("videofile", row.videofile)
    .log("ResponseTime", getVar("RT"))
    .log("qualID", getVar("qualID"))
)

Then you can systematically look at a single line in the results file (eg. the Text element’s log line) and get all the information you want in it
