[edit] Data Collection

  • AcqKnowledge is the Biopac software that accompanies their hardware used for recording the PP data on the Computer. It is run during the experiment to collect data.


Sample screenshot of an AcqKnowledge PP data file, containing GSR, EMG, and Marker data:

[edit] Experiment

  • E-Prime is the primary (actually, as of 2008, the only) experiment program ACL uses for PP data collection. You can look at a sample E-Prime experiment designed for PP collection.


[edit] Experiment-Data Synchronization (Markers)

There is no other special software for sending the markers. This is done within the E-Prime experiment. The ACL has a standardized set of rules for sending and labeling markers.


[edit] Analysis

As of 2008, there are two different programs for analysing PP data.

  • ANSLab (Autonomic Nervous Systems Lab) is a Matlab application developed by some folks at the University of Basle, Switzerland.
  • pp_gui is also a Matlab application developed in-house by Wojtek Grabski.
