In this post you will find some really good Python Blogs and Resources. Most of these really helped me when moving from proprietary software to free and Open Source software (e.g., PsychoPy written in Python). The links are divided into two categories: general and research. In the ‘general’ category you will find good Python resources […]

Python apps and libraries for creating experiments
In this post, I will describe the existing free Python applications and libraries for creating experiments. So far, I have only used PsychoPy but I plan to test most of them. At least the ones that seem to still be maintained. All applications and libraries are open-source which makes it possible to download the source […]
What programming language should I learn?
I am getting better at writing Python code and I am starting to feel an itch to extend my toolbox and learn more about programming. Therefore, one step in that direction is to learn a new programming language next year (i.e., 2016). I would like to learn a relatively new language and it should not […]
Free & Useful Software – PsychoPy
PsychoPy This post will describe why I prefer using PsychoPy before other software. When I started getting involved in research (i.e., when doing my Bachelor’s and Masters theses) I used the software that was accessible for me. That is, some of the most commonly used software at the department I was studying at. After starting […]
Another Python script for randomization with constraints
In this post you will find a function I wrote solving a problem of randomization with constrains in Python. For a psychological experiment (a shifting/task-switching task) I am planning to conduct I needed a list of stimuli names quasi-randomized. Fifty percent of the items in the list be followed by a stimulus in the same […]
