URL of experiment: Pavlovia Description of the problem: I am looking to set my experiment up to run online and my x coordinate for my stimulus position values are set in a code component. Using python code I set the x position for my two stimuli to come from two gaussians where the value of the t…

Never knew that RStudio supports syntax highlighting for JavaScript. Interesting! The warnings RStudio gives on those lines nothing to worry about; it’s just a bit more modern style of JS than RStudio is familiar with. When I fork and run your experiment, I notice my browser freezes. When I stop i…

Hi Lucy, There is no built-in function available, but there are some libraries on the web that you could use. Some aren’t very solid, but when I needed a quantile function for a d-prime (see dprime repo ), I ran some tests and found the function in this repo to be reliable. Above, I linked directly …

Thank you for getting back to me so quickly Thomas. It looks fantastic.

Hi again Thomas, I had a go with this and added the function to my code component where it is required. However I think the next problem I am having (I think) is importing the libraries at the very beginning (see .js file in R studio) because the experiment does initialise. I then type in the parti…

Okay thank you I will try running it without the while loop (it only provides a constrain for the x axis value) and then see if I can adjust (add break or similar).

I ran the test, using this function in R to plot a Histogram with an normal curve overlaid on top of it. Seems legit
