Introduction
One of the main features of PsyToolkit is that you can create and run
cognitive psychological experiments in your browser. Here are a number
of ready-to-use demos using this technology.
This library has now more than 25 experiments that you can try
yourself in your browser (no plugins or other software needed). Each
experiment can be used and modified and even embedded in your own
online data-collection project.

See also the survey library for running online questionnaires in which you can embed experiments. |
What you can do
You can do two types of things with each experiment in this library.
Using the code
There are two different ways of getting the example code into your
PsyToolkit account:
-
Within your online PsyToolkit account, simply go to the library and
find the relevant experiment. The official library experiments in the
online account are exactly the same as those in the library. -
Download the zip file from the library (each experiment has a
runnable demo and a downloadable zip file of the experiment). Go to
your PsyToolkit account, and create a new experiment (select “From a
PsyToolkit experiment file (zip format)”).
List of experiments without keyboard use (touch-screen friendly)
|
In principle, most experiments can be made touch/mouse friendly. Most cognitive psychological experiments use, however, keyboards because they give more precise reaction time measurements. Even so, this is great for demonstrations and seems to work well. |
