StimulusBlock

class Python_modules.mmcomplexity.StimulusBlock(num_trials, hazard, first_source=None, sources=None, sounds=None)

Bases: object

Define stimulus for a block of trials in which hazard rate is fixed

Attributes Summary

likelihood_same_side	Likelihood of a sound occurring on the same side as the source
source_prior

Methods Summary

generate_source_sequence([init])

Generates a sequence of sources

Attributes Documentation

likelihood_same_side = 0.8

Likelihood of a sound occurring on the same side as the source

source_prior = {'left': 0.5, 'right': 0.5}

Methods Documentation

generate_source_sequence(init=None)

Generates a sequence of sources

todo: might be computationally inefficient

Args:

init: initial source side (should be member of SIDES). If None, picked according to prior

Returns:

sequence of source sides
