ORAMMA

Object Recognition, Attention, Memory with MAtlab (ORAMMA experiments).

A collection of behavioural experiments programmed with Matlab.

Experimental Tasks:

• Reaction Times task (Object Recognition)
• Attentional Blink task (Conscious access)
• Attentional Capture task (Selective Attention)
• Additional Singleton task (Selective Attention)
• Duration Discrimination (Time Perception)
• Posner Cuing task (Selective Attention)
• Episodic Memory task (Long-term Memory)
• Semantic memory task (Long-term Memory)
• Working Memory task
• Passive Viewing task
• Visual Search task
• Change Blindness task
• Working Memory task
• N-back task

Task Numbers:

Task numbers are defined in the main script of each task (e.g. the task number of the attentional blink task is defined in the script main_abVn.m, where n is the version number).

Task numbers given so far:

• 1 for the reaction times task (version 1)
• 2 for the attentional blink task (version 1)
• 3 for the passive viewing task
• 4 for the posner cuing task
• 5 for the attentional capture task (version 1)
• 6 for the additional singleton task (version 1)

Completed tasks so far:

• Reaction times task (simple version without masking)
• Attentional blink task (simple version with digits and letters)
• Passive viewing task
• Posner cuing task (simple version adapted from Posner, 1980)
• Additional singleton task (simple version adapted from Theeuwes, 1992)
• Attentional capture task (version with faces and houses as stimuli)
