Paradigm software description

Present Stimuli with Paradigm

Create Awesome Experiments: Paradigm presents movies, images, audio, text, self-paced reading trials and rating scales. Stimuli can be presented simultaneously or in serial, and their properties can be changed for each trial using Paradigm's "define per trial" features.

Everything You Need, Nothing You Don't: Paradigm's user-interface is minimal, focused and intuitive. You'll be able to build your experiments in just a few clicks without learning a complex scripting language or poring over an encyclopedia's worth of documentation.

Collect Better Data: Paradigm gives you millisecond accurate stimulus presentation "by default". You can log information about every aspect of your experiment, including responses, reaction times, stimulus onsets and onset errors. Your logged data are automatically exported to an Excel® spreadsheet.

Collect Responses with Paradigm

Click, Press or Speak: you can collect responses from a Mouse, Keyboard, Button Box, Joystick or Microphone. With Paradigm's built-in mouse selection, your subjects can select visual stimuli with a mouse pointer. We've verified Paradigm's reaction time accuracy with the Black Box Toolkit.

Universal Button Box: Paradigm supports button boxes from PST (E-Prime®), Cedrus (SuperLab®) and the "in house" button box used in your lab.

Voice Keys and Voice Samples: using any microphone, you can collect voice key reaction times and record voice samples. Each voice sample is saved as an individual sound file, simplifying the visual inspection of voice onsets.
