    Onlt the final response is recorded on each trial?

    [edited from support email]

    I made a program on directRT and am running into problems saving data. On each trial, I have two stimuli followed by 11 questions. However, on each trial, only the response data from the last question of the 11 questions is saving. How do I save all 11 questions?

    This is one of the differences between the short (or summary) data file and the log data file. The short data file contains only a single response to a given trial (the final one if there are multiple responses). In contrast, the log version records all responses during a trial, all stimuli and and all response and display times. Take a look at the log files and see if you find what you are looking for--they ought to be located in a "log" subfolder of the "data" folder.

    Hope that helps.
