response_count

OPTIONAL

Each trial contains by definition only one response. However, when response_structure is other than unitary, a response comprises multiple pieces of information (e.g., “3-5-7” could be one response in the digit span task and this response contains three components, namely “3”, “5” and “7”). response_count refers to the number of components that make up a response (not the number of responses within a trial).

Notes

  • response_count is different from input_count; a subject may in some cases change their response multiple times before submitting the final response. In such cases, there would be many more inputs than there are components to the final response.
  • While we have stimulus_set_size we currently don’t have a response_set_size, but we do have option_count and response_count.
