Tasks, data, and analysis scripts for Nussenbaum, K., Scheuplein, M., Phaneuf, C., Evans, M.D., & Hartley, C.A. (2020). Moving developmental research online: comparing in-lab and web-based studies of model-based reinforcement learning. Collabra: Psychology.

This experiment runs a working memory task similar to the distractor-based change detection task of Vogel Machizawa (2005) (see also Lenaert et al., 2016). Colored targets are shown in left & right visual field, attention is directed using a cue. Distractors can be presented in addition to targets.
