Debian Med Psychology packages

According to its authors, praat is "doing phonetics by computer". Through its graphical interface, several speech analysis functionalities are available: spectrograms, cochleograms, and pitch and formant extraction. Articulatory synthesis, as well as synthesis from pitch, formant, and intensity are also available. Other features are segmentation, labelling using the phonetic alphabet, and computation of statistics. Praat is configurable and extensible through its own scripting language and has provisions for communicating with other programs.

Psignifit allows fitting of psychometric functions to datasets while maintaining full control over a large number of parameters. Data can either be read from text files or passed through a pipe.

Psignifit performs the calculation of confidence intervals as well as goodness-of-fit tests.

This is the command line version.

PsychoPy provides an environment for creating psychology stimuli using Python scripting language. It combines the graphical strengths of OpenGL with easy Python syntax to give psychophysics a free and simple stimulus presentation and control package.

The goal is to provide, for the busy scientist, tools to control timing and windowing and a simple set of pre-packaged stimuli and methods. PsychoPy features

• High-level powerful scripting language (Python)
• Simple syntax
• Use of hardware-accelerated graphics (OpenGL)
• Integration with Spectrascan PR650 for easy monitor calibration
• Simple routines for staircase and constant stimuli experimental methods as well as curve-fitting and bootstrapping
• Simple (or complex) GUIs via wxPython
• Easy interfaces to joysticks, mice, sound cards etc. via PyGame
• Video playback (MPG, DivX, AVI, QuickTime, etc.) as stimuli

PyEPL is a stimuli delivery and response registration toolkit to be used for generating psychology (as well as neuroscience, marketing research, and other) experiments.

It provides

• presentation: both visual and auditory stimuli
• responses registration: both manual (keyboard/joystick) and sound (microphone) time-stamped
• sync-pulsing: synchronizing your behavioral task with external acquisition hardware
• flexibility of encoding various experiments due to the use of Python as a description language
• fast execution of critical points due to the calls to linked compiled libraries

This toolbox is here to be an alternative for a widely used commercial product E'(E-Prime)

This package provides PyEPL for supported versions of Python.

This package provides functions for reading and writing data stored by statistical packages such as Minitab, S, SAS, SPSS, Stata, ...

This package is part of the set of packages that are 'recommended' by R Core and shipped with upstream source releases of R itself.

This package includes several procedures used in psychometrics and scaling, including:

 Cohen's Kappa and weighted Kappa (two-rater agreement tests)
 Cronbach's Alpha (an item-reliability test)
 Focused Principal Components Analysis
 Intraclass correlation coefficients
 Light's Kappa (an N-rater agreement test)
 Screeplots and graphical representations of principal components

The Vision Egg is a programming library that uses standard, inexpensive computer graphics cards to produce visual stimuli for vision research experiments.
