Popis: This paper presents an open-source online tool for introducing psychology students to the major theoretical and empirical facts of habituation. The tool was designed in a way that combines theory and data through simulated experiments. The simulations exemplify how the priming theory of Allan R. Wagner accounts for the set of behavioral characteristics of habituation proposed by Richard F. Thompson and W. Alden Spencer in 1966. Through this interactive platform, the user can learn the basics of the theory and examine how it accounts for the empirical facts with different parameters. Instructions and commands are provided in three languages: English, Spanish, and Portuguese.
