See script "catsr_summary.iqjs" for a data glossary. Note: the individual subtests cats_subtest1.iqjs to cats_subtest13.iqjs can be run as single scripts as well. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ EDITABLE CODE ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ check below for (relatively) easily editable parameters, stimuli, instructions etc. Keep in mind that you can use this script as a template and therefore always "mess" with the entire code to further customize your experiment.
