WMCapacity (version 0.9.6.2)

wommbatGUI: Start GUI for working memory capacity estimation.

Description

wommbatGUI starts the graphical user interface for building and estimating parameters of working memory models. This is the main interface for the WMCapacity package.

Usage

wommbatGUI(project = NULL, projectFile= NULL, CSVfile = NULL, dataFrame = NULL, devel=FALSE)

Arguments

dataFrame
a data frame containing the trial-by-trial data to be analyzed.
CSVfile
the location of a CSV file containing the trial-by-trial data to be analyzed.
projectFile
a saved WMCapacity analysis (.Rdata file), containing all the necessary information necessary to start an analysis.
project
a environment of a WMCapacity analysis, containing all the necessary information necessary to start an analysis.
devel
Turn on (undocumented) testing features.

Value

  • This function returns nothing. The defined models and results may be extracted my means of the womExtractModel function.

Details

This function starts the GUI for estimating working memory capacity from change detection data, using the hierarchical Bayesian models described in Morey (in preparation). There are a number of ways of passing data to the function. If you have the trial-by-trial data already loaded in R, you can pass the data via the dataFrame argument. If it is in a CSV file, you can load it by passing the path via the CSVfile argument. If you saved the analysis and wish to reload it, you can use the pass the saved file name to the projectFile argument. argument. Alternatively, you may load data via the GUI. For further details, click on the Help button in the GUI, or see the user's manual at http://wmcapacity.r-forge.r-project.org/.
