[Work in Progress] Experiments Created With psychopy

This repo will contain a bundle of experiments created with psychopy. Feel free to fork/modify it.

Motivation behind this project

When I got started with psychopy, it was challenging to find good examples that used only Python (and not the builder) for creating experiments with this framework.

This repo attempts to fill this gap, aimed at more advanced scientists/student who are confident at coding with Python, but would like to see some examples before reading the full documentation of psychopy.

How to run the experiments?

1. Make sure that you have installed psychopy

• installation page

WARNING: Based on my experience, if you want to use psychopy from the command line, you have to install the psychopy package with pip, regardless of the OS.

2. Download the contents of this repository

• from here
• or simply clone the repository with git.

3. Choose an experiment from the experiments directory (e.g.: word_recognition) and run the trial.py file with either:

• the PsychoPy desktop app
  • Open trial.py:
  • Run trial.py:
• or the terminal:

To see sample outputs for the experiment, check the contents of the sample-data directory next to the trial.py file. You can find more information about the experiment in the README.md file in the experiment's directory.
