psycog 0.0.1

A tool for performing psychophysical and cognitive experiments.

Psychophysics and Cognition (psycog)

This software is for measuring psychophysical and cognitive abilities in humans. I use it for my own research, but it is open source and freely available for anyone to use.

Installation

Python Package

psycog is a Python package. You can install it using pip:

pip install psycog

Due to the large number of dependencies, it is strongly recommended that you install psycog in a fresh virtual environment.

Standalone Executable

I intend to make psycog available as a standalone executable in the future. This will allow you to run experiments without having to install Python or any dependencies, though the executable will be quite large (~1GB). This is not yet available.

Usage

Command Line

psycog is GUI-based. To run it, simply type psycog into the command line. This will open the main menu, from which you can select the experiments you wish to run.

Python

You can also run the GUI from inside a Python REPL or script, though I'm not sure why you would want to do this.

from psycog import run

run()
