The open toolbox for behavioral research.
Article in Behavior research methods, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
In this work, we describe a new open-source MATLAB toolbox for the control of behavioral experiments. The toolbox caters to very different types of experiments in different species, and with different underlying hardware. Typical examples are operant chambers in animals, with or without neurophysiology, behavioral experiments in human subjects, and neurophysiological recordings in humans such as EEG and fMRI. In addition, the toolbox supports communication via Ethernet to either control and monitor one or several experimental setups remotely or to implement distributed paradigms across different computers. This flexibility is possible, since the toolbox supports a wide range of hardware, some of which is custom developments. An example is a fast network-based digital-IO device for the communication with experimental hardware such as feeders or triggers in neurophysiological setups. We also included functions for online video analysis allowing paradigms to be contingent on responses to a screen, the head movement of a bird in an operant chamber, or the physical location of an animal in an open arena. While the toolbox is well tested and many components of it have been in use for many years, we do not see it as a finished product but rather a continuing development with a focus on easy extendibility and customization.
