A question about True/False choice test - Hyeonah - 05-10-2021
Hello!
I have a question about True/False choice test.
I noticed that an instruction would appear "Click the answer that you think is most likely correct:" when participants are asked to choose one between True and False.
Is there a way to change the instruction or is this instruction fixed so that I can't change it?
Thanks for your help!

Hi Hyeonah!
There's a quick fix for that! Use the following code:
Code:
"instruction": ""The default instruction is "Click the answer that you think is most likely correct:". The empty quotes "" will remove instruction. Conversely, you always have the option to specify the instruction however you see fit (e.g., "Click TRUE or FALSE.")
More information on choice responses can be found here: https://help.findingfive.com/api/responses.html
Thanks!

Thanks for your reply! Can I ask another question?
If you look at the attached image below,
is there a way that I can move the text ("The story is set in Northern Italy") higher or move the instruction so that there would be enough space between the text and the instruction?
Thanks!!

Hi Hyeonah!
Great question! Check out our documentation on the "layout" property (https://help.findingfive.com/api/responses.html?highlight=layout AND https://help.findingfive.com/api/trial-templates.html?highlight=location). You can move the response options down on the page (location 8) and/or move the text toward the top (location 2) by specifying the layout location.
Another option is to create an image with the text. You can create an image with extra white space underneath the text, which will in turn push the response options down.

Hi Grace,
Thanks for your advice!
Here's what I did in the trial.
"comp_2": {
"type": "basic",
"stimuli": [
{"which":["comp2-T"],"location":[2]}
],
"responses": ["T"],
"auto_advance": false
},
But the text ("comp2-T") doesn't move up but just appears in the middle.
Could you let me know how I should fix the code?

Hi Hyeonah,
The most effective way to set any arbitrary space before or after a text stimulus is using the <p> tag like this:
Code:
<p style="margin-bottom: 30px">The story is set in northen Italy</p>You can in fact use any CSS styles this way. Hope this helps.
