Hi All, 
I am setting up a 4AFC study with four images as choices for the response and the stimuli is an audio file corresponding to one of the four images. I would like the images to appear on the screen before the audio plays. Is it possible to present the response choices before the stimuli of the trial? 
Thank you!

About 8-12 months ago I ran several studies that used branching. I need to run another condition now. The branching is no longer working. It seems things have changed that have resulted in my branching code to no longer work. Can someone help point out what needs to change now?
Here is the branching block:
    "matchAFCblock": {
      "trial_templates": ["MouseCheck1"],
      "branching": {
        "method": "match",
        "triggers": [
          {"trial_template": "MouseCheck1", "response": "MouseChoiceResponse1"}
        ],
        "branches": {
          "YesBranch": ["I have the right equipment"],
          "NoBranch": ["I do not want to participate"]
        }
      }
      },
   
      "matchedYes": {
        "trial_templates": ["YouClickedYes"]
      },
   
      "matchedNo": {
        "trial_templates": ["YouClickedNo"]
      },

Here is the block sequence:
  "block_sequence": ["intro", "mouseintro", "headphoneintro",
      "matchAFCblock", {
        "NoBranch": ["matchedNo"],
        "YesBranch": ["matchedYes",
                      "InstrBlock", "TrainBlock1", "TrainBlock2", "TrainBlock3", "TrainBlock4", "Test1Block", "Test2Block", "Test3Block", "OvertQuestionsBlock1", "OvertQuestionsBlock2", "OvertQuestionsBlock3", "LanguageBackgroundBlock"]
      }
  ]

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi there!
I am collecting data and one of my participants is enabled to enter the study. She can access the link, log in and then enter the access code, but after that, she has an error message saying that she should check her mailbox first. 
Is it something related to "confirm your email to create your profile"? She checked her mailbox several times, looking in all folders, but there is nothing here like a "confirm your email". 
She is using a VPN, could this be the reason why she cannot access the study?

Many thanks for the answer(s)

Hi FF team,

I'm trying to make an experiment in which i play audios and only collect a keypress response after some of them. To that end i've set up my procedure to show the "audio", "response" and "submit" trial templates in this sequence (last one is just a blank screen where the response is submitted). "audio" just plays the audio, and then "response" i'm not sure how to set up because i want to collect a response only on some trials. Here's what i have at the moment, where "blank1" is a blank screen for 1s and bague is an image to which i want the ppt to give a keypress response:

Hello! 
I am currently collecting data and I had a participant reach out to me telling me that after reading the consent form and hitting the "participate" button they were taken to the bottom of the screen with no way to proceed to the study. They tried entering the study using both Firefox and Chrome. They are eligible for the study and were specifically included using the "allow only..." feature when setting up study sessions. I have not had any other participants contact me about this issue. Besides switching browsers, is there another way to go about helping this participant?
Thank you!

Hi,
I've had a few people take my study but then time out because they got distracted. Still, the data they contributed is usable, even if it's not a full set. How can i access it?

Hello!

I was wondering if there's a way to set up a colored border around image stimuli. I have the stimuli grouped in two different groups and I want to have one group with one colored border while the other has another color for one of the trials in my experiment. 

Thank you! 

Hi,

I am modifying my experiment code but cannot get it run. There is a message saying "coding errors that cannot be automatically detected" when I clicked the preview button. Can you give me some suggestions about how to debug? Thank you. 

Best,

Our university uses Sona Systems to manage participants. It has an "external study credit granting" feature that allows participants to be granted credit as soon as they complete an external study. On their website, Sona has instructions on how to implement this feature on many online experiment presentation platforms, but Finding Five is not listed: https://www.sona-systems.com/help/
Is there any way of implementing this feature with Finding Five?

Dear Researchers,

We are excited to announce the availability of the February Study Grammar Update! FindingFive servers (US and EU) will be updated on the early morning of Monday 2/14/2022 to include the following changes:

New Features:

• Carryover response - it is now possible to use participant responses collected on previous trials as stimuli in later blocks of an experiment. This feature can be especially useful for paradigms where the participant is asked to review or judge their own responses in perception or decision-making tasks.
  
  Please refer to our new tutorial for how to use this feature.
  
  
• Extended speech recognition support - studies that use the speech recognition feature in audio responses are now open to more browsers, including Firefox and Safari on desktop or laptop computers. Previously Chrome was the only browser that participants can use for these studies.
  

• Fixed an issue where trials with stimuli using the barrier feature and an audio response would experience unexpected jumpiness during the trial.
  
• Fixed an issue where participants couldn't start a study using Firefox on an iPhone or iPad.
  

• Better styling for requirement messages that participants see at the beginning of an experiment.
