In my experiment design, a pair of participants should press different keys (one should press 'z', the other should press '/' on the same keyboard) to respond to the signal appearing on the same screen. But I want to know how to record two different key responses with very short time intevals.
Hope I can get some advice on how to fix the code below:
while true
[~,~,keyCode]=KbCheck;
if keyCode(KbName('z'))
endtime1=GetSecs
end
end
while true
[~,~,keyCode]=KbCheck;
if keyCode(KbName('/'))
endtime2=GetSecs
end
i=i+1;
break;
end

in any experiment in which people are expected to do something at the same time then either person might perform the action first. Your code outline discards all inputs until it sees one particular one and then discards all inputs until it sees the other. If the second person types first your code outline would discard it because it discards everything until it sees the character expected for the first .

gotem = false(1,2)
times = zeroes(1,2)
while ~all(gotem)
get a key
[tf,idx] = ismember(the key, appropriate values )
if tf
gotem(idx) = true
times(idx) = GetSecs
end
end
Note that in this code if the same key is pressed multiple times then the last is recorded . Recording the first instead would be easy
