Implementing multi-session learning studies out of the lab: Tips and tricks using OpenSesame

Abstract

Here, we provide tips and tricks for running multisession experiments out of the lab us-ing OpenSesame, a user-friendly experimental tool that is open source and runs on Windows, Ma-cOS, and Linux. We focus on learning experiments that involve the measurement of reaction times. We show how such experiments can be run with traditional desktop-based experiment software on participants’ own notebooks (i
