Usage

Most of the functions are designed to easily and quickly get you through some preliminary data processing steps so you can get to work on processing and analyzing your data.

Templates

  • R project template

    Create a research project directory with folders and R script templates:

    File -> New Project -> New Directory -> then choose the ‘Research Study’ template

  • Download R script templates

    R script templates can be downloaded with get_template()

  • Download Quarto analysis template

    R script templates can be downloaded with get_template(analysis_script = TRUE)

Organize and process data

  • Organize files from different computers

    We often collect data on multiple computers on a battery of cognitive tasks. The copy_files() function helps to get all the files for each task, organized on multiple computers, into one location (usually a network drive or shared folder on a cloud storage system).

  • Check for duplicate subject ID’s in your data files

    In large data collection efforts it is not uncommon that subject ID’s will occasionally get entered incorrectly when adminstering a task. The duplicates_check() function will check for duplicate subject ID’s, remove them, and save them to a file so you can sort them out later.

Upload to OSF

  • Upload files to an OSF project

    OSF does not make it easy to upload files especially when you have several leves of nested folders - you cannot upload folders directly to OSF! The `upload_to_osf() function makes it more convenient to upload multiple files and sub-folders to OSF.
