Supervising a Psychology student creating an online #mousetracking experiment with #jsPsych - showing videos and asking participants to choose left or right.
If you’ve worked on something similar and are happy to share a code template or know of good resources, we’d really appreciate it! 🙂

Possible that I'm more charitable than most regarding academic software, since my lab contributes a lot of time and thought to products like jspsych, pushkin, worldwidelab etc, but like, I find it silly to reject decent innovation in a space dominated by bad actors (Elsevier, Scholar et al)

Today from 5-6 ET / 2-3 PT, Becky Gilbert is going to host an open office hour for help with jsPsych. Becky is a software engineer for Children Helping Science. Did you know that you can now use jsPsych to build studies that run on CHS (formerly Lookit)?
We've just
launched a Discord server for #jsPsych users to collaborate and get technical help.
I'll be hosting office hours tomorrow from 10:30-11:30 AM EDT. Hop in with any questions!

I collected data from jspsych to OSF with datapipe (lovely tool) but wish I hadn't. Getting data out of OSF is a pain. 7kb/s download speeds are not fun when you're downloading 1000csvs

I asked a similar qst a while ago! People recommended a few different options: bsky.app/profile/xall...
Personally decided to stick with jsPsych because I already had the infrastructure developed for it (and it's free forever). Bit of a learning curve for new trainees, but they get more out of it

Question for #PsychSciSky folks who have stopped using Qualtrics: What do you use now? Are there better alternatives that still have survey flow, skip logic, randomization, etc? I'm familiar w/ psytoolkit and jsPsych but curious what else is out there!

What are your technology solutions for online data collection? I'm always looking for new ways to collect data from hard-to-reach samples but have no research funding. I've used PsychoPy with Pavlovia.org and jsPsych with Cognition.run but I'm looking for other options #AcademicSky #CogSci

some jspsych folks that have been talking about this recently are @joshdeleeuw.bsky.social and @mekline.bsky.social, and also came up in discussion at the cogsci meeting with @mcxfrank.bsky.social and @jkileyhamlin.bsky.social

we have a similar problem with supporting the jspsych ecosystem — funding open-source software and community-service platforms is tricky under standard grant mechanisms & university programmes. it would be cool to organise across platforms to try to solve this

Thrilled to see this work published — and even more thrilled to have been part of such a great collaborative team!
One key takeaway for me: Webcam eye-tracking w/ jsPsych is awesome for 4-quadrant visual world paradigm studies -- less so for displays w/ smaller ROIs.

This uses WebGazer + jsPsych to test the viability of online eye tracking in five case studies.

At Grand Central in NYC on the last leg of my Seattle WA -> Poughkeepsie NY trip to attend the @jspsych.org hackathon. Exciting!!!
I'd love to hear what you think we should be working on. What is jsPsych missing? What are the pain points?

PsychoPyのBuilderで作った実験課題をjsで出力して、見本のjsPsychのスクリプトと一緒にClaudeに突っ込んでjsPsych版作らせたら、呈示の時系列くらいは合ってるものが出てきたので、あれこれ指示してってほぼ完成しそう。「あれこれ指示」の部分がもう少し簡単であれば、学生でも楽にコーディングの課題作れそうなんだけどなぁ🤔

I use JsPsych! In my opinion, it is a little easier to use out of the box than PsychoPy. It is really customizable (incl complex randomization), works with DataPipe, and is open source!

Has anyone tried collecting data by directing participants from Prolific to a jsPsych task hosted on a Github Pages website? If so, what are some issues to look out for? I do want to support and use services like Pavlovia and cognition.run but I do not yet run a grant-funded lab!🧎♂️
