Package 'SSRTcalc'

Title: Easy SSRT Calculation
Description: This is a collection of functions to calculate stop-signal reaction time (SSRT). Includes functions for both "integration" and "mean" methods; both fixed and adaptive stop-signal delays are supported (see appropriate functions). Calculation is based on Verbruggen et al. (2019) <doi:10.7554/eLife.46323.001> and Verbruggen et al. (2013) <doi:10.1177/0956797612457390>.

Estimating SSRT using integration method for studies that use adaptive (increasing/decreasing by a given increment) stop-signal delays.

Usage

integration_adaptiveSSD(df, stop_col, rt_col, acc_col, ssd_col)

Arguments

df

Dataframe with response time, accuracy, indication whether trial is stop or go, and delays for a given trial.

acc_col

Name of the column in the dataframe df that contains accuracy of inhibition ( 0 = incorrect, 1 = correct)
ssd_col

Name of the column in the dataframe df that contains stop-signal delays

Value

SSRT corresponding to the nth rt - ssd; n = p(respond|signal)*number of goRTs

Examples

data(adaptive)
