I am working on a variation of a Wisconsin Card sort task. I have been unable to figure out how to end a trial after the subject completes 10 CONSECUTIVE accurate responses. The "Criterion for Exit" sample gives some information on how to terminate a trial after a certain percentage of accurate responses. Is there a way to specify that there needs to be 10 consecutive accurate responses before the trial terminates? I would greatly appreciate any help you could give me. Thanks!

Sorry that I don't have any advice for your particular problem... but I was wondering if you would be able to tell me where this "criterion exit" example is located?  I'm trying to find out how to require a certain percentage of correct responses before a person can move on to the rest of the experiment.  If you could point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

See the attached.  You can use a global script variable to keep track of how many are accurate in a row and exit based on that criteria.

The link for the sample is at your other post lauren.

Thanks so much Brandon! That worked great!

And to answer Laurens Question, the sample is on the Web Support Site. Its under the "Samples" section and its actually called "Criterion Based Exit"

Here is a link to the sample.
