This paper is an updated description of jsPsych and includes all current core team members. It replaces the earlier paper that described jsPsych:
de Leeuw, J.R. (2015). jsPsych: A JavaScript library for creating behavioral experiments in a Web browser. Behavior Research Methods, 47(1), 1-12. doi:10.3758/s13428-014-0458-y
Citations help us demonstrate that this library is used and valued, which allows us to continue working on it.
Cite using citation tool
We also made a command-line citation tool that can be used to cite this library, as well as any plugins/extensions you use in your experiment that are developed by other developers. You can see this tool in action by following these steps:
- Launch a jsPsych experiment in your browser
- Open up the browser console using Ctrl + ⇧ + J (Windows) or ⌘ + ⌥ + J (Mac)
- Type
jsPsych.getCitations([jsPsychHtmlKeyboardResponse], "apa")
This should print the APA format citation for the jsPsychHtmlKeyboardResponse plugin, which you can then copy and paste into your working document. You can type any number of plugins/extensions by name in the array [ ] to generate a list of citations. We currently support APA formatting ("apa") and BibTex formatting ("bibtex").
