Navon Data analysis
As with Stroop analysis… • Copy your Excel data file into the class_share drop box (for batch analysis) • Open it in Excel and get the mean RT for consistent and conflicting conditions: • Select the trials sheet (not pracTrials) • Copy the congruence column and the resp.rt_mean column to sit next to each other • Calculate the average of the two conditions (easier if you sort the new block of data by congruence)
For your report… • You will need various details about the experiment, which you can fetch from PsychoPy, such as: • How long was each component presented (e.g. fixation cross) on? • How many/what stimulus conditions? • Randomly presented? • Where were they on the screen? • When were subjects first able to respond? • How did the trial end? • Was there a pause before the next trial? How long? • How many trials and practice trials? How did they differ? • anything else you can think of…?
Summary • By now you should have some idea how to generate a lab report and what to put in it. • Don’t worry, this is something you simply have to practice, but it does get more obvious. • Often students ask if there is a ‘model’ lab report available. • Yes! There are several thousand freely available – they are journal articles. Reading them will help a great deal in learning to write your own
