E-Prime

Brief description

E-Prime is a program that can be used to programme experiments and register responses with millisecond precision. It is especially suitable for experiments that measure response time. Various kinds of text, images, videos and sound files can be used in the experiments.

E-Prime consists of multiple components, such as a design environment in which experiments can be created, an application that can run experiments, an application that can merge several data files and an application that can edit data. The editing application can be used to filter data and create tables and graphs, for example. The data files generated by E-Prime can be easily exported to other programs such as Excel and SPSS.
