Trial-level records from the timed-response assessment of Hardwick, Forrence, Krakauer and Haith (2019). Participants learned a mapping from four symbols to four keys, then learned a revised mapping in which two of the four symbols changed key. In the assessment they had to respond at a moment fixed by the experimenter, which sets the time available to prepare a response. The interest is in what happens at short preparation times, when the original mapping can win over the revised one.

Usage

habit_prep

Format

A data frame with 28,940 rows and 10 columns:

participant

Factor. Person identifier, e1-NN for experiment 1 and e2-NN for experiment 2. Experiment 1 identifiers occur in both the minimal and the 4day group.

group

Factor with levels minimal, 4day, 20day. Amount of practice on the original mapping before the remapping.

subject_code

Integer. The participant directory in the source deposit, which numbers the same person differently in each group.

trial

Integer. Position within the timed-response assessment. Some indices are absent because the corresponding trial was not recorded.

prep_time

Numeric. Preparation time in seconds, from stimulus onset to the required response. Values are negative when the response came before the stimulus appeared.

remapped

Logical. TRUE for the two stimuli whose key changed between the original and the revised mapping, FALSE for the two that kept their key.

stimulus

Integer. Symbol shown. The two experiments use different symbol sets, so the codes are not comparable between them.

target_key

Integer in 1:4. Correct key under the revised mapping.

response_key

Integer. Key pressed. A few trials record a value outside 1:4, which is a hardware read failure rather than a key.

response

Factor with levels correct, habit, other. The response category the model is fit to: correct is the revised mapping, habit is the original mapping, and other is either of the two remaining keys. NA where response_key lies outside 1:4.

Details

Three groups differ in how much the original mapping was practiced before the remapping: minimal is experiment 1 before training, 4day is the same people after four days of practice, and 20day is a separate cohort trained for twenty days. Because minimal and 4day are the same people measured twice, participant repeats across those two groups.

Each trial is assigned to the remapped or the unchanged stimulus set by its trial index.

Only the two remapped stimuli carry a habitual response option, so the model in vignette("habit") is fit to subset(habit_prep, remapped).
