Movie watching

Stimuli, data, and analysis for a study measuring the kinds of information that children and adults look at while watching movies.

Experiment

The experiment folder contains the PsychoPy experiment, integrated with a Tobii eye tracker, to run the movie watching experiment. This code been tested with Python=3.10 and with a Tobii Fusion. Run the code below to test. Before running this code, replace the stimuli folder with the files within this Google Drive folder. More information about the key bindings you can use during the experiment is in documentation/exp_dictionary.csv

conda create -n moviewatching python=3.10
conda activate moviewatching
pip install -r requirements.txt
cd experiment
python run_movie.py --subject <SUBJECT_ID>

If you do not have an eye tracker, alternatively run python run_movie.py --subject <SUBJECT_ID> --mock in place of the last line.

Output data is saved to data/raw, logs are saved to data/logs, and more information about the data variables is in documentation/data_dictionary.csv

Switching Conda from Rosetta to ARM in MacOS

Here are instructions to switch your Conda environment from Rosetta to ARM in MacOS. First right-click on the Terminal icon in Applications > Utilities. Select Get Info > Uncheck the tick box that says 'Open using Rosetta'

rm -rf ~/miniconda3
curl -O https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-MacOSX-arm64.sh
bash ~/Miniconda3-latest-MacOSX-arm64.sh

1. Press Return to review Miniconda’s End User License Agreement (EULA). You can view Anaconda’s Terms of Service (TOS) at https://www.anaconda.com/legal.
2. Enter yes to agree to the EULA.
3. Return to accept the default install location (PREFIX=/Users//miniconda3), or enter another file path to specify an alternate installation directory. The installation might take a few minutes to complete.
4. Choose an initialization options: Yes (Recommended) - conda modifies your shell configuration to initialize conda whenever you open a new shell and to recognize conda commands automatically.

Run source ~/miniconda3/bin/activate to apply the changes automatically in the current Terminal window.
