<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="color:black">Workshop Description:</span></b><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">This workshop introduces <a href="https://www.pcibex.net/"><span style="color:purple">PennController for IBEX</span></a> (PCIbex), a
<b>free and open-source</b> platform for designing, implementing and hosting online experiments, of use to anyone collecting behavioral experimental data in the cognitive sciences and beyond. In the workshop, you will reproduce <a href="https://expt.pcibex.net/ibexexps/example/TimedPictureSelection/experiment.html"><span style="color:purple">this
simple experiment</span></a> to introduce you to core features. Along the way, you will learn how to develop and host experiments on <a href="https://expt.pcibex.net/"><span style="color:purple">the PCIbex Farm</span></a>, which comes with its own interface
and requires <b>no server setup, software installation or prior knowledge of a programming language</b>. Focusing on fundamental concepts and the basic logic of the interface, this workshop will be useful both to students and researchers new to online experiments
and ones with prior experience on other platforms.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="color:black">More about PennController for IBEX:<o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">PCIbex builds on IBEX, a free, javacript-based platform for running experiments online, developed by Alex Drummond to conduct common text-based, psycho-linguistic tasks, including self-paced reading and rating
studies. PCIbex is an extension developed by Jeremy Zehr within a project in Florian Schwarz’s lab at the University of Pennsylvania. It uses a
<b>versatile</b> and <b>user-friendly</b> yet powerful mini-script language (requiring no javascript skills) for incorporating a diverse range of features in your experiment, such as multimedia support and dynamically unfolding trial structures, with the capacity
of <b>tracking timing and inputs</b> throughout, to accommodate both simple and complex experimental task paradigms with a wide range of dynamic and interactive features (e.g., visual stimuli, flexible, multi-stage trial structure, response feedback, scripted/
timed events, playing audio and video). <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">Free hosting offered at <a href="https://expt.pcibex.net/"><span style="color:purple">https://expt.pcibex.net/</span></a> means posting simple experiments online just takes a few simple steps that can be shared
through a URL. This is compatible with a variety of recruitment platforms, e.g.,
<b>Sona, Prolific, or Mechanical Turk</b>. Templates or prior experiments can easily be imported via
<b>github</b>, which also allows for easy sharing of your work for <b>maximal transparency and replicability</b>.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
