Protocol

This is a general overview. You need to know some stuff about the lab, the project, and your expectations. If you have a question and there's not an answer here, let someone know. :) lab resources

Project overhead

Project folder

 Have access  Understand its structure (readme files) • Know when/where to read/write o What’s your and others’ responsibilities?  You vs. primary project manager (Mark)  Peers (other RAs) or other project managers (grad students or PIs)

design experiment

o Stimuli are controlled for visual features (all made the same), normed if necessary.  Something better than pixton  Python scripts o IV and controls: Counterbalance made; experimental versions made.  Python scripts or excel o Expeeriment design  Eprime or python o DV and controls: measures in place and tested.

set up, run experiment.

o Updated counterbalance version administered identically to all participants. o log and report all runtime data, errors, participant log, daily.  Input all 100% unambiguous data points (e.g. e-prime; debrief questions)  Operationalize data entry for subjective (e.g. named responses). o Report on experiment log on box.com

code data.

o Coding criteria defined. o Coders trained o Subset coded for intercoder reliability.

process data.

o Read/clean r code o R summary statistics

report results.

o Make/modify figures in R. o Set up/modify poster templates.
