Hi there,
Is there a way to code multiple correct responses for a given question in an experiment? For example, the correct answer to one of our questions is 0.10, and we want to be able to count .1 and .10 as correct as well. From what I understand, the readkeys command only allows you to point to one correct response.
Alternatively, is there a way to manually override STATUS? I tried creating if statements to set STATUS == CORRECT if the subject answers with .10, .1, or 0.10, but it appears that is not allowed.
Any input or suggestion is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Sorry, that is currently not possible.
The problem is that PsyToolkit variables can only handle numbers. The 'readkeys' is an exception that you can store the word, but it is currently limited.
I am sorry, this is not something that you can solve. It is best to give the participant clear instructions and wait until an improved readkeys version comes out.
Thanks for the idea, because I can see that it would make a lot of sense. I plan to have a way to check "text variables" in a future version (maybe over the summer).
