I don't know what I'm most sad about. That students don't apply to these courses, or that the uni doesn't feel willing to subsidise them.
Or that government/society has decided that uni courses are only about employment rather than enriching or society and cost a funding model accordingly

If you want to extend from surveys into experiments (dynamic, rich stimuli, reaction time measures etc) then you can combine surveys with PsychoPy/JS

As @rondalo.bsky.social mentioned this also supports our work building better open science tools 😁🙏

Full disclosure: I'm PsychoPy/Pavlovia creator

To clarify on Pavlovia/PsychoPy (NB I'm biased): for research-grade surveys (with randomization, conditional Qs based on previous answers etc) Pavlovia Surveys tab will suffice (and low open pricing model pavlovia.org/docs/store/p... ). You don't need PsychoPy installation, just the browser...
