From the 3rd to the 4th April I’ll participate in an on-site Eye–Tracking Workshop for Developmental Scientists in Birkbeck University of London. The goal of this workshop is to learn the principles on how to use eye-tracking techniques for behavioural studies through coding languages (Python – PsychoPy, and R) and analysing it through different models. The course covers the basics on eye-tracking mechanisms, calibrating Tobii hardware, using Python, R and PsychoPy, collecting quality data of Areas and Times of Interest, preprocessing it through measures like saccadic latency or looking time, and analysing it through different statistical models. This is especially interesting for my thesis for two main reasons: first, my first experiment is already coded through PsychoPy, but I still lack expertise to apply it to more complex experiments; second, and crucially for my thesis, I intend to use the eye-tracking technique for my upcoming experiments (particularly, the ones with children participants).
