Hello Becca and Serena,

I think that you could help me concerning the following issue that I have :

How to interpret the decrease of intensity from PsychoPy during a staircase?

Hello ! I created a 3 down and 1 up staircase design, including the following parameters: nReps 30 start value = 1 (corresponding to 60dB) min value = 0 step size = (1,1,0.5) step type = db 7 reversals Participants have to identify two speech sounds during the experiment. The task runs correctly however, I am a little bit confused about the data file. More specifically, I am not sure how to interpret the column D corresponding to “staircase_loop.intensity” (see the file “example file”). exam…

I simply wondered if any of you knew how to interpret de decrease of intensity from PsychoPy during a staircase ?

I do apologise for the inconvenience and thank you in advance !
