Updates

Publishing It'd be pretty awful if we allowed participants to take your studies while [...]

Updates will happen regularly. Experimaker will constantly be improving over the next several months. It's exciting! First Update The Experimaker open beta launched 2 weeks ago, and today we're pushing out its very first update. Ready-made templates are a key feature of the platform, and we've added a few new ones. There are now 4 experiment templates to check out, including the classic Lexical Decision Task and Stroop Test. We'll be adding more on a regular basis. All of the templates can be modified to suit your needs. We've redone the editor front page so that the list of public templates is loaded first. Previously, we dropped users straight into a new experiment. This can be intimidating if you're not [...]
