Go / No-Go

This is a reimplementation of the Go / No-Go task described in [Guitart-Masip et al., 2012].

For this project the graph structure is the following:

Task description

In this task, participants are asked to respond to a target in time, or to withhold their response.

First they are presented with a cue, the condition and response-type. There are two conditions: punishment or reward and two response-types go or no-go.

After the cue the participant needs to press space in response to a target stimulus, or to withhold their response.

Depending on their action, the participant receives a probabilistic reward, or probabilistic punishment.

As can be seen in the graph, the task is controlled by the agent_location or starting_position in that each cueing condition, has a separate graph structure.
