psychopy-experiment

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps researchers design and run timing-critical behavioral experiments while producing analysis-ready logs and BIDS events without manual formatting mistakes.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Window/monitor-calibrated stimulus presentation: Configure monitor geometry and render stimuli with frame-synchronous timing using PsychoPy window flips.
• Reaction-time task scaffolding: Build a trial loop that randomizes trial order, jitters inter-stimulus intervals, collects keyboard responses, and computes accuracy.
• EEG/eye-tracker synchronization and BIDS export: Optionally send TTL trigger codes for external hardware and generate BIDS-compatible events.tsv from logged timing.
• Online deployment readiness: Provides a Pavlovia compatibility checklist for exporting to PsychoJS via PsychoPy Builder.

Quick Start

Use the psychopy-experiment Skill to generate a PsychoPy RT task that logs per-trial onsets and reaction times, optionally emits TTL triggers, and outputs BIDS events.tsv.
