In this task participants are required to memorise and recall number series in order. Participants start out with three 3-digit sequences. If participants correctly recall 2 out of 3 three sequences, they progress to 4-digit sequence trials and so on. If participants respond incorrectly on 2/3 trials the experiment terminantes. This experiment is based on the original digit span experiment by Jacobs (1887).

This is a simple Lexical decision task. A fixation cross will be displayed in the centre of the screen. Following this 2 text stimuli will then appear, and the participant will have to respond if they are words or non words pressing ‘w’ if they are both words or ‘n’ if one or more is not a real word. This will be repeated 36 times for the main trial. Reaction time and accuracy will be recorded, and congruent and incongruent pairs will be compared.

In this experiment participants are required to respond whenever the stimulus (square) location matches its location the previous trial (N-back-1). N-back-2 trials involve responding whenever the location of the square is the same as its location 2 trials before. This task is based on Kirchner (1958) experiment.

This is an experiment based on the judgment of the intensity of sound stimuli. It is part of our thesis and the conference project. This is a test version of the experiment to check if our procedure is correct and accurate.

This experiment contains the practice blocks of Experiment 1 from the following paper:

Eaves et al: Transfer of congruency effects between Stroop and multiplication tasks: Evidence that retrieval of multiplication facts requires inhibitory control

Testing the “uniquely” human ability to perform abstraction and generalization on continuous values

Quale evento “naturale” estremo fa più paura? L’ipotesi di ricerca è che determinati eventi naturali estremi trasmettano una maggiore sensazione di paura rispetto ad altri eventi naturali estremi. La variabile indipendente che è stata manipolata per verificare le scelte degli utenti sono i diversi eventi naturali estremi. Nel dettaglio i diversi eventi che vengono presentati presentano la stessa categoria di eventi, quindi eventi naturali catastrofici, ma di tipologie differenti. La variabile dipendente che è stata utilizzata tramite la scelta di due eventi è la sensazione di paura derivante dai diversi eventi della variabile indipendente. Gli stimoli manipolati sono: tsunami, siccità, tornado, terremoto, valanga e alluvione.

Experimenting with a slider that can be controlled using the keyboard or mouse hover.

Open sourced Implicit Association Test (IAT) as a demonstration. This version will run locally in PsychoPy (mouse input) or online (including touchscreen input)

Text Input using text and code component

This is a simple demonstration showing how to take keyboard inputs and present them on screen using a text component.

You will be presented with a target word. Following the target presentation, you will be asked to type the target word on screen, from memory.When you have finished typing the word, press "return" to end the trial.

A learning task based on the reinforcement learning model. The current version is based on the paper by Frank, Woroch and Curran. (2005). Neuron, 47(4), 495-501.
