The Online Psychology Laboratory

I’m pleased to report that the American Psychological Association were very pleased to enter into discussion about the experiments used in the “OPL” resource.  OPL is a great idea, which entails giving open access to online experiments so that different universities and classes can participate, but aggregating the data so that students can then download a much larger data set for analysis.  This is all very useful, but it’s getting out of date – especially since most of the resources are in ‘Authorware’ format, and Adobe have officially killed authorware.
