Generate stimuli and analyze data of reverse correlation image classification experiments (psychophysical tasks aimed at visualizing cognitive mental representations of faces). For the method see Dotsch and Todorov (2012) doi:10.1177/1948550611430272 ; for a practical primer see Brinkman, Todorov and Dotsch (2017) doi:10.1080/10463283.2017.1381469 .

Details

vignette("reverse-correlation-walkthrough") works through a complete experiment end to end. In brief: generateStimuli2IFC creates the stimuli together with the .Rdata file recording how they were made, and generateCI2IFC or batchGenerateCI turns participants' responses into classification images. citation("rcicr") prints the reference to cite.
