I'm taking a class on cognition. I have to create, perform and document a formal Psych experiment.
Last night I finished my little testing program (CGI::App, SQLite, Class::DBI, Template Toolkit) and today I tested 14 participants. Without going into too much detail, I essentially tested subjects to see if, when presented with a series of questions, they would produce the expected output after being given a certain stimulus. (Hehe, no, this was a completely visual and audible exercise.)
My test groups appeared as follows:
+-----------------------------------------+ | | Order 1 | Order 2 | Control | |-----------+---------+---------+---------| | Variant 1 | A | B | C | |-----------+---------+---------+---------| | Variant 2 | D | E | F | +-----------------------------------------+
