Our Mission
To facilitate and promote Open Science with high-quality, minimal-cost tools
The tools we make
PsychoPy
PsychoPy is one of the most popular open-source packages for running experiments in psychology, neuroscience and related behavioral sciences. Built to be:
- Precise enough for psychophysics
- Easy enough for teaching
- Flexible enough for everything else
PsychoJS
PsychoJS is the JavaScript port of the PsychoPy library. The idea behind PsychoJS is to make PsychoPy experiments available online, from a web page, so participants can run them on any device equipped with a web browser such as desktops, laptops, or tablets.
Pavlovia
Pavlovia.org is like:
- Open Science Framework, except built with Git version control
- GitHub for psychologists, except other psychologists will find your work
- An experiment server, allowing you to run your study. Actually, it isn't a bit like that. It is exactly that!
