Popis: | In the department of Psychology at the university of Groningen, a development toolkit for building real time experiments called Taskit has been used for many years. This development toolkit offers the possibility to create psychological experiments in a MsDos environment using Turbo Pascal. Recently, however, the question was raised to construct a toolkit with at least comparable functionality, but now using the advantages of a Windows based operating system. A thorough investigation was made into the possibilities for translating the existing Taskit toolkit to a Windows based environment. This approach resulted in a new toolkit that can be used for developing real time experiments within Microsoft Windows: WinTask. At present this environment supports all the necessary visual and auditory modes of information presentation with adequate, guaranteed accuracy of timing. The WinTask toolkit has already been used as part of a complex dynamic environment, simulating an ambulance dispatch work domain. |
