# Little Listeners

[![R-CMD-check](https://github.com/tjmahr/littlelisteners/actions/workflows/R-CMD-check.yaml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/tjmahr/littlelisteners/actions/workflows/R-CMD-check.yaml)

Tools for working with data from word recognition eyetracking experiments.

## Installation

First install the devtools package, then install the package from this
repository.

```{r install, eval = FALSE}
install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("tjmahr/littlelisteners")
```

## Background

This package was developed to support eyetracking word recognition experiments
for the [Little Listeners](https://littlelisteners.waisman.wisc.edu/) project.
In these experiments, images are placed onscreen and followed by a spoken prompt
to view one of the images. We record the participant's gaze location over the
course of a trial. By aggregating this gaze location over many trials, we can
describe and measure a participant's word recognition by showing how their
gaze location changes in response to speech.

littlelisteners is my (Tristan Mahr's) second or third attempt at making an
eyetracking processing package in R. My design goals were to be generic (work on
dataframes of eyetracking data) and not just bespoke outputs for individual
eyetrackers and experiments. The package's code tries to play well with the
tidyverse as well.
