because it's what we do

PsychoPy is an free cross-platform package allowing you run a wide range of in the behavioral sciences (neuroscience, psychology, psychophysics, linguistics...)

This is a community project. Users have all the source code. Users are the developers. Users support each other.

Alongside open-source, we're strongly supporters of Open Science, and we'll try to encourage and facilitate that wherever we can!

## Precise enough for psychophysics

- Timing can be controlled with frame-by-frame precision
- Tools to help monitor calibration and wide range of units
- Hardware-accelerated graphics for stimuli that can be updated on the fly
- Access to button boxes when you need the utmost precision
- Automated logging for you to what happened and when
- OpenGL (and shaders) ready for use when you low-level access to graphics

## Easy enough for teaching

- Flexible and intuitive Builder interface to create huge range of studies
- Textbook(s) suitable for both undergraduate and professional audiences
- Many further resources for learning and teaching, including Youtube tutorials, online tutorials and workshops.
- The Pavlovia repository of shared experiments accessible directly from the application (requires PsychoPy3) to search for and share your studies.

## Flexible enough for everything else

PsychoPy is great for:

- Dynamic, interactive studies: Free yourself from simple static stimuli! You can update your stimulus interactively on every screen refresh!
- Neuroimaging: Send and receive triggers to your hardware at precise times
- Eye-tracking: Access to wide range of hardware (eye trackers, button boxes, trigger systems...)

## Online

Want to run your study on the web?
PsychoPy3 added the facility to

- Export your experiment as a web page
- Upload that to Pavlovia.org
- Give participants your URL and run your study in the browser!
- You can recruit participants using Sona, Prolific Academic, Mechanical Turk or similar systems.

## Open science

Did you notice that everyone's sharing these days?

- PsychoPy was written by scientists for scientists
- You have all the source code. If you want something added or changed you can go ahead and make that change!
- Over 100 contributors have made changes (small or large) and fed them back to the project for others to benefit!
- You can share your study on Pavlovia.org and that means more people might be tempted to base their work on yours (which means more people talking about your work).
