I've encountered a problem where after a participant clicks agree on the informed consent, an error message pops up saying this: "We encountered an unexpected error upon processing your request." Refreshing the page or changing the account doesn't seem to help with the problem.

I've uploaded several sets of zipped audio files to "Files" and while these uploads were "successful" none of the files are showing in the list of files, and none of the files available for use in stimuli, they're missing.  However, with each "successful" upload, the "memory meter" shows space has been taken up by the no-show files.

Hi! I would like to include a simple fill-in-the-blank task into my experiment with a text that contains 25 blanks where participants type their answers in each blank. Is there a way to achieve this in FindingFive?

Hello, I am piloting a study in which participants are redirected from Prolific to Finding Five. In order to match their FF study data with their Prolific demographic data, the first thing I have them do when they start the FF study is enter their prolific ID into a text response.

Unfortunately, 3 out of the first 10 pilot subjects did not have that response recorded! That row in their data is simply missing.

What are some reasons why that response isn't being saved?

This is a pretty crucial step in my study, so any help you can offer in sorting the issue out would be much appreciated!

Best,
Nate

I'm trying to launch my study. When I click on Sessions, I see Active and Finished but I don't see New Session. If I click on Active and Finished, nothing is there. How do I launch my study?

I need to have participants make judgments of learning (JOLs) after they answer each question. Ideally, they would answer a question and on the next screen they would get a JOL which asks them about their confidence in their answer on the previous screen. My question blocks look like the ones below. Basically, they see the passage above the question, then the question below the passage, and then the response choices. I would like to have a JOL occur after every question, but I still need to keep the questions in a random order.  Is there a way to accomplish what I want without setting up a question block for every question?

This is my current question block that doesn't include the JOLs between questions:

    "Acupuncture_e_questions": {
  "type" : "basic",
  "stimuli": [{"which":["Acupuncture-Easy-Manipulation","A_E_C_1"],"location":[2,8]},
            {"which":["Acupuncture-Easy-Manipulation","A_E_C_2"],"location":[2,8]},
            {"which":["Acupuncture-Easy-Manipulation","A_E_C_3"],"location":[2,8]},
            {"which":["Acupuncture-Easy-Manipulation","A_E_P_1"],"location":[2,8]},
            {"which":["Acupuncture-Easy-Manipulation","A_E_P_2"],"location":[2,8]},
            {"which":["Acupuncture-Easy-Manipulation","A_E_P_3"],"location":[2,8]},
            {"which":["Acupuncture-Easy-Manipulation","A_M_C_1"],"location":[2,8]},
            {"which":["Acupuncture-Easy-Manipulation","A_M_C_2"],"location":[2,8]},
            {"which":["Acupuncture-Easy-Manipulation","A_M_C_3"],"location":[2,8]},
            {"which":["Acupuncture-Easy-Manipulation","A_H_C_1"],"location":[2,8]},
            {"which":["Acupuncture-Easy-Manipulation","A_H_C_2"],"location":[2,8]},
            {"which":["Acupuncture-Easy-Manipulation","A_H_C_3"],"location":[2,8]},
            {"which":["Acupuncture-Easy-Manipulation","A_H_P_1"],"location":[2,8]},
            {"which":["Acupuncture-Easy-Manipulation","A_H_P_2"],"location":[2,8]},
            {"which":["Acupuncture-Easy-Manipulation","A_H_P_3"],"location":[2,8]}],
  "responses":["A_E_C_1_R","A_E_C_2_R","A_E_C_3_R","A_E_P_1_R","A_E_P_2_R","A_E_P_3_R","A_M_C_1_R","A_M_C_2_R","A_M_C_3_R","A_H_C_1_R","A_H_C_2_R","A_H_C_3_R","A_H_P_1_R","A_H_P_2_R","A_H_P_3_R"],
  "duration": 60,
  "countdown_visible": true,
  "stimulus_pattern": {"order": "random"}
},


This would do what I want, but I'm really trying to avoid coding this for 135 questions (3 conditions, each with 3 sets of 15 questions):

"Acupuncture_A_E_C_1_question": {
  "type" : "basic",
  "stimuli": [{"which":["Acupuncture-Easy-Manipulation","A_E_C_1"],"location":[2,8]},
           "Post-JOL-Q"],
  "responses":["A_E_C_1_R","JOL-Post"],
  "duration": 60,
  "countdown_visible": true
}


Thanks!

I have a study with three passages which fall in one of 4 conditions. I want participants to see each passage in one of the conditions but I want whether or not they receive all conditions across passages to vary randomly. Something like the below code which doesn't seem to work. How can I accomplish something like this? Specifying a condition for all possible combinations here is a little unwieldy and wouldn't replicate a prior experiment well. 

"block_sequence": [{"$randomize":[
        {
        "A_C": ["A_full_control"],
        "A_E": ["A_only_easy"],
        "A_H": ["A_only_hard"],
        "A_HE": ["A_full_manip"]
      },
      {
        "C_C": ["C_full_control"],
        "C_E": ["C_only_easy"],
        "C_H": ["C_only_hard"],
        "C_HE": ["C_full_manip"]
      },
      {
        "D_C": ["D_full_control"],
        "D_E": ["D_only_easy"],
        "D_H": ["D_only_hard"],
        "D_HE": ["D_full_manip"]
      }]}

The other issue I'm having is more minor, but I'd like to have a passage and a comprehension question with answer choices on the same page. I want the passage below the question but that means I need to get the choice to appear between the two stimuli. Is there a way to do that? 
Thank you

Dear Researchers,


The 2023 Fall Study Grammar Update is almost here! This update contains quite a few new features and improvements that we are really excited about!


Please note:

1. Do you use the Keypress Response type? If so, please pay special attention to item #1, as it may affect any scripts you have for processing reaction time data.
   
2. As always, you MUST preview your study in full to update to the latest grammar version in order to use these features.
   

I would like to present videos in different length sequences. That is, on one trial, participants see one video before they respond. In another, they see 2 or 3 or 4 before responding. I tried grouping the vide stimuli within the trial template (e.g., [[vid 1, vid 2], [vid 3, vid 4, vid 5]], but then the first video stays visible when the next starts to play, which I would like to avoid. What other ways are there of achieving this?

Hello,
I am trying to show image stimuli(i.e. a big scene image) that are superimposed by another image(i.e. smaller face image) in each trial.
Since I am planning to randomize scene-face pairs, making superimposed images in advance and uploading those images may not be available.

Could you suggest any useful grammar or method for this?

Thanks,
