Running the code in this repository

Run the R notebooks (.Rmd) in a remote RStudio session in your browser with Binder: Binder

Alternatively, inspect the output of the notebooks here on GitHub by viewing the associated .md files.

Contents of this repository

  • sacc-tDCS.Rmd: R notebook with analysis code that will reproduce all of the results, figures and statistics contained in the paper. See the notebooks folder for additional notebooks with a more in-depth exploration of the dataset.

  • sacc-tDCS.md: Output of the notebook, formatted in markdown. This file should render directly on GitHub, so use this to view all the code and output on here. (plots referenced in the .md file are contained in sacc-tDCS_files/).

  • sacc-tDCS.Rproj: Config file with options for the R project; also determines top-level folder.

  • analysis.m: MATLAB script that loads the raw data and creates the .csv file that's read in by the R notebook.

  • install.R and runtime.txt: Binder configuration files.

  • docs/: Additional notebooks with more in-depth analyses on each different aspect of the project. More information can be found in the notebooks themselves; they are also referred to in the main sacc-tDCS notebook. Like the main notebook, each has three types of files (.Rmd, and .md) and a folder with plots.

  • site: Source files for the project website (linked at top of page).

  • src/: All other analysis code used in the project.

  • task/: Code for the experimental task and control of the eye tracker; used during data collection.

About

In this study we examined whether electrical brain stimulation of the frontal eye field can influence reaction time and accuracy of human eye movements.
