Using the form plugins
A number of commonly used forms are available as ready-made plugins. These allow you to use common forms, without any need for scripting.
- form_consent is a simple digital consent form (disclaimer: some journals may require written consent)
- form_multiple_choice allows you to present multiple choice questions
- form_text_display is a simple text display that you can use to show instructions etc.
- form_text_input is a simple text input display that allows you to ask a question and collect a multi-character response from the participant
The form_base plugin is special. It allows you to define custom forms using OpenSesame script, as described here:
