We are looking for a letter 2-back task, ideally in html5, to use in a research study. If there is one already available it would save us having to get it programmed up. We want to run the study on Amazon MTurk so we can't use anything that requires participants to download a plug in or software (e.g. Inquisit).
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Nina
In html5 i don't know but you can adapt a free source code to it (maybe to javascript and not so much to html). A free example is:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/brainworkshop/?source=directory
http://brainworkshop.sourceforge.net/
Apparently it's written in Python which should be "simple" enough to convert to Javascript assuming you're comfortable with the latter. I'm not sure what the "letter 2-back task" is but I assume is just one of the possible exercises. The code can't be that long.
Also I believe that it's possible to use Python language directly on your web page (although I've never done this). A possible link to check this choice is this:
https://docs.python.org/2/howto/webservers.html
Hope it helps.
At my advice you can contact with COG-LAB through R. Colom or P. Ch. Shih,
they are experts,
There is an nBack task in HTML5 on Github here: https://github.com/dino001/nback
It's currently setup for the standard spatial/auditory dual task, but you should be able to edit the auditory letter task to a visual letter task fairly easily.
Where can I get the N-Back task for my research.?Do I have to buy it?
