Task experiment Salzburg

Information about task events is vital for data analysis. It is the main data for behavioural experiments and essential to analysis of task based MRI/EEG/MEG data. It is important that your task events are recorded and described in a comprehensive manner, so your data can be maximally reusable. We provide general guidelines on planning a comprehensive BIDS event file. We also offer support in implementing a task experiment using Psychopy. Psychopy provides graphical user interface for building experimental paradigms, that can be used with little to no learning curve. Additionally, the psychopy-bids plugin provides an easy way to get bids compatible event files directly from your task experiment. Additionally, we offer basic conversion scripts for Presentation logs.
