    Time limited quiz?

    [edited from support email]

    Is there a way to administer a timed, multiple-choice quiz? If that's not possible, could I show a pdf document for a fixed period of time?

    you can place a time limit on an entire questionnaire when you list it in the experiment file (via the duration parameter, e.g., d120 to limit it to two minutes).

    I am designing a questionnaire and i need to make it exactly 10 minutes. I am not sure how to program Media Lab to only allow the questionnaire to be 10 minutes in length.


    See above.

    Is there a way to format that time (which gives the time remaining to complete the questionnaire) to make it be larger?

    Currently I don't think so. You could check to see if your fonts are set to "large fonts" in your display settings--that may have an impact. Also using a lower screen resolution would likely make the numbers appear larger (e.g., 1024x768 vs 1600x1200). Out of curiosity, what screen res are you running in?
