re trieve user input from an tcl/tk interface
...with a modalDiaglog ( http://bioinf.wehi.edu.au/~wettenhall/RTclTkExamples/modalDialog.html like this ) but I cannot figure out how to do this with multiple values to be read. I want to run a rather simple simulation and the user has to be able to set multiple parameters (say, number of trials and stimuli). The onOK-function should then "collect" these parameters and save them to variables (I guess). Here is a snippet of my code. Could someone tell me what to do? Am I heading in the right direction or is my approach hopeless? :p ----------------------------------------------------------...

Multivariate function from univariate functions
I'm relatively new to R and I'm stuck. I'm trying to construct a surface to optimize from a multivariate dataset. The dataset contains the response of a system to various stimuli. I am trying to optimize the mix of stimuli to maximize the response. To do so, I've interpolated the various datasets of type response vs. stimuli and I now have an array of functions "interps" whose length is the length of the array of the names of the various stimuli. I've a...

prcomp( and cmdscale( not equivalent?
Hello, I have a dilemma that I'm hoping the R gurus will be able to help resolve. For background: My data is in the form of a (dis)similarity matrix created from taking the inverse of normalized reaction times. That is, each cell of the matrix represents how long it took to distinguish two stimuli from one another-- a square matrix of 45X45 where the diagonal values are all zero (since this represents two identical stimuli). I have been using cmdscale with this matrix as the input-- So: X = cmdscale(mydata,k=44,add=FALSE,eig=TRUE)$points returns a 45x34 matrix because only 34 of the eigen...

Post hoc analysis for ANOVA with repeated measures

I am not able to find a good example over internet in R...is there among you someone so kind to give me an hint with a R example please? For example, the aov result of my analysis says that there is a statistical difference between stimuli (there are 7 different stimuli). ...I would like to know which stimuli are involved. > aov1 = aov(response ~ stimulus*condition + Error(subject/(stimulus*condition)), >data=scrd) > summary(aov1) Error: subject Df Sum Sq Mean Sq F value Pr(>F) Residuals 14 227.57 16.255...

Analyzing dissimilarity ratings with Multidimensional Scaling
...mmoc() but with no luck. I summarize the experiment I performed, and I would ask you an help to show me how to analyze in R my results. I simulated 6 surfaces materials at auditory and visual level, and I asked subjects to evaluate on a 9-point Likert scale the degree of coherence between the two stimuli. For example, there are trials where at auditory level a metal surface was simulated and at visual level the snow surface, or wood both at auditory and visual level. The experiment had only 12 participants, so for each trial I have 12 response (no repeated measures involved). In total there were 3...

Subjects where exposed to some stimuli and they where asked to evaluate the degree of realism of the stimuli on a 7 point scale (i.e., data in column "response"). Each stimulus was presented in two conditions, "A" and "AH", where AH is the condition A plus another thing (let?s call it "H"). Now,...

Finding ties in data (be)for(e) BradleyTerry
Dear all, I have carried out a pairwise comparison study that I want to analyze using the BradleyTerry package to establish a rank order of my stimuli. However, BT does not handle ties between stimuli, so I need to find those in my data before I can use that model. The code below goes from the format of my result file(s) to a data frame suitable for BT, but as you can see, there are some ties. I need to find the rows with identical (but swapped)...

COX PH models for event histories?
...nal hazards model to analyze event histories. I am looking at the responses of sympathetic nervous system activity to a stimulus. The activity I observe is a burst that can only occur once per heart beat cycle (e.g., a binary count). Typically bursts occur in 60-80% of the heart cycles * sensory stimuli can modify these burst probabilities. I give 48 stimuli-trials at random intervals and count the number of bursts associated with the stimuli. For example, a person with 75% burst probability at rest (e.g., 36/48) may have an stimulation induced increase to 87.5% (42 bursts in 48 trials). There...

I'm analyzing skin temperature continuously recorded at 32Hz in Baseline (10 min), Testing (~5 min), and Recovery (20 min) epochs of a face recognition experiment. Stimuli are the same in Baseline and Recovery (portrait or landscape), and in testing, participants were tested on their recognition of a list b&w portraits presented just before testing started. On some of the portraits 'learned' the eyes were masked, and in others, the eyes were visible. In t...

Visual stimulus presentation using R?
...ent where it's essentail to travel to the subjects, not let the subjects come to where the Matlab licences are :-( So I need to use a free software for my experiment if I don't want to by an extra Matlab licence (which I don't want to). Did anyone ever try to do presentation of visual stimuli (images, practically, with a little bit of text in my case) with R? I looked into the documentation of rgl, but what's lacking there is (as far as I saw) the possibility to also read (unbuffered) keyboard input. So what I need is: 1. put images onto the (full!)screen (qick) 2. read keyboa...

ANOVA of a sort
Dear R Help, I have a general question - I know this is the R list, but I hope someone can help me out a little as I've always found the help here to be absolutely fantastic. I have run a psychological study where participants are given multiple stimuli and their responses to those stimuli are measured on the same numerical scale, i.e., the data is something like Participant Stimulus Measurement p1 s`1 5 p1 s`2 6.1 p1 s`3 7 p2 s`1 4...

MANOVA with repeated measures in R
Dear list member, I deperately need an help in performing a MANOVA in R, but I encountered some problems both in the design and in the synthax with R. I conducted a listening experiment in which 16 participants had to rate the audio stimuli along 5 scales representing an emotion (sad, tender, neutral, happy and aggressive). Each audio stimulus was synthesized in order to represent a particular emotion. Participants had to move 5 sliders each of which corresponded to one of the 5 emotions. The sliders range was [0,10] but particip...

new package MLCM: Maximum Likelihood Conjoint Measurement
This is to announce a new package MLCM on CRAN. The package provides functions for estimating perceptual scales by maximum likelihood from data collected in a conjoint measurement experiment. Data for conjoint measurement are typically collected using a psychophysical procedure. The stimuli vary along 2 or more dimensions. The observer views pairs of stimuli and judges which stimulus of each pair is higher on a specified dimension. For example, stimuli may be goods baskets containing amounts of milk and honey (dimensions) and the subject may order each pair of baskets by subjective d...

anova repeated measure interpretation
...I have tried to use R for the repeated measures experiment design in a phonetic study, and in the resulting forms I met some problems which perturb the final interpretation of the results. I will explain the experiment design first: the same 7 subjects were answering a question about 25 linguistic stimuli; the stimuli were the same utterances which were processed in 3 different ways (3 conditions), ie each subject listened 25*3 stimuli. I would like to test the effect of condition and of the stimulus on the subjects' performance. My dependent variable is Nboundaries . I think there is: one rando...

comparing two regression models with different dependent variable
Hi, I would like to compare to regression models - each model has a different dependent variable. The first model uses a number that represents the learning curve for reward. The second model uses a number that represents the learning curve from punishment stimuli. The first model is significant and the second isn't. I want to compare those two models and show that they are significantly different. How can I do that? Thank you. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
