Not save data for a trial

[fspinar]

Hi all,

I want to skip saving data in a trial if the response is not correct. I.e.,

if response not correct
data does not change
else
update data

How can I achieve that?
Thanks!

I mean, this is really up to you when you code your task in JavaScript, since generally you have to explicitly call to save the date, e.g. psiTurk.savedata() ...

Hi @jacob-lee
Thanks for the answer. What I meant was not actually saving the data, but rather not updating it at all.
I mean, if in a given trial the response is null, then I do not want to include that trial in the "data" structure of jsPsych.
Can I achieve this by calling psiTurk.savedata() appropriately?

Thanks!

psiTurk does not have a jsPsych dependency. Call psiTurk.recordTrialData with just the data that you want to be eventually saved (by saveData), and no other.
