This platform makes it simple to integrate with third-party platforms for experiment generation, such as Qualtrics or Gorilla, as well as to appoint participants through Calendly and other calendars. The CogniFit Research Platform is an ideal solution for laboratories that are looking for a comprehensive platform for creating, managing, and distributing experiments to participants. As such, it is the perfect tool for those who are conducting research in the field of cognitive science, psychology, linguistics, and neuroscience. The platform’s interface is intuitive and user-friendly, and it allows users to easily create experiments from templates, or from scratch. Once experiments are created, they can be quickly shared with participants and monitored in real-time. The platform also allows users to keep track of their experiments with its detailed analytics dashboard, which provides a wide range of data related to the experiment’s performance. The CogniFit Research Platform is an invaluable tool for any laboratory that conducts experiments on humans. It provides a comprehensive and user-friendly platform for creating and distributing experiments, using the most widely employed cognitive assessment tools and paradigms, and monitoring the performance of each experiment in real-time. With its powerful experiment generation tool, the CogniFit Research Platform is a great solution for any laboratory that wants to conduct research on the human mind.

Vi vil vise hvordan en metode som kalles eye-tracking (eller blikksporing) fungerer og forklare hva denne metoden forteller oss om hvordan vi forstår hverandre og lærer oss nye språk. Du vil kunne delta i et kort blikksporing eksperiment og etterpå få se på dine egne øyebevegelser. Du kan også delta i et kort musesporingseksperiment og lære hvordan noen forskningsspørsmål kan besvares med enklere eksperimenter som ikke krever dyrt utstyr.
