Hello, I have a survey that includes multiple blocks (each including 50+ trials) for which I would like to collect RT data. Is it possible to turn this on as a feature? I have not been able to find javascript - if we must add JS to each unique item, we will (but I would really prefer not to do this item by item).

The only built-in functionality is the Qualtrics timing question, but that typically isn't sufficient for measuring reaction time. So, you probably need to do it with JavaScript. Obviously, I don't know your specifics, but most likely, you can write the JS in a generalized way and put it in a function that you could then include in the header. That way on each question you just call the function with the appropriate question specific parameters.
