PsychExperiments is an on-line cognitive and social psychology laboratory site that has been developed with funding from the U.S. Department of Education's FIPSE program (Fund for the Improvement of Post-Secondary Education) and from NSF's Course Curriculum and Laboratory Improvement program. The site consists of a set of interactive experiments, a cumulative data archive, download utilities for both data and experiment source code, downloadable Excel macros for analyzing data from the experiments, and support materials for those who want to use and/or develop experiments at the site. If used in lieu of commercial experiment packages, this site will enable psychology departments to eliminate many of the expenses associated with providing undergraduate laboratory students the space, hardware, and software needed to conduct laboratory experiments.
PsychExperiments is a community project. While it is hosted and maintained by McGraw, Tew, Williams, and Sharp and the University of Mississippi, it receives input from those who wish to use the site for both research and teaching. The members of the PsychExperiments team are currently listed on the left. The contributors who have posted experiments to the site are part of the team and work closely with PE.
