###### tags: `Dissertation` `Meeting`

## Action
1. Finalise the research questions as much as possible
2. Read through the Ethics system and requirements, and prepare in detail. Work on Proposal and Ethics application *in parallel*.

## Resources mentioned
**Statistical analysis**
* G*Power
* Jamovi

**Platforms for experiments**
* Pavlovia
* Cognio[?]
* Qualtrics
* Jisk[?]
* PsychoPy
* JSPsych

**Creating 3D graphics as stimuli**
* Unity (see Unity Asset Store)
* (Previously mentioned) Blender
* Use pose libraries

## Discussion on proposal proforma

Study design
- Use flow chart and visualisation to detail study design
- Detail duration and number of trials in experiment.
- State the questionnaires.

Participants
- Conduct power analysis with GPower or R, state the alpha, beta, expected effect size, to determine an appropriate number of participants.

Materials
- For proposal / ethics application, can use images from other papers, cite and say we'll be using something similar.
- For questionnaires, state how many questions, any subsets or subscles, and the scoring (e.g., mean, total).

Procedure
- Any counterbalance, blocks of trials, randomisation, controls.
- Request participants to use desktop or laptop, and (for eye tracking experiment) test that participants are on desktops/laptops.

Ethics
- Consider ethical issues for using stimuli e.g., faces, and data capture & storage for eye-tracking via participants' webcam

Analysis
- State statistical tests
- If specifying only the levels of analysis, state that there will be additional validity and reliability tests
