## Contents of this directory ## The Data and Analysis Scripts directory contains the data and scripts needed to reproduce the analyses and figures reported in the manuscript. The directory contains: - *vsbDynamic.Rproj* is the R environment. It is recommended to attempt to reproduce from the .Rproj to ensure that access to sub-directories runs smoothly - *vsbGazeAnalyses.Rmd* is the mark-down document in which the analyses are scripted. This document will load - *bootstrappingBhv.csv* (the behavioral data recorded by OpenSesame, with some preprocessing applied) - *bootstrappingSacs_withTargets.csv* (the preprocessed saccade data) - *vsbFixations.csv* (the preprocessed fixation data) The main analysis script also requires access to the *savedAnalyses* sub-directory, which includes all the BayesFactor objects supporting the reported results. If these BF analyses are re-run rather than loaded, the values would change somewhat from the reported values. Subdirectory *figures* contains the figures output by the main analysis script (these outputs are currently commented out so they do not refresh on reproduction). The subdirectory *preProcessing* includes scripts used to take the raw data, which is potentially identifiable because it contains dates and times, and process it into an unidentifiable and tidier form. We do not share the potentially identifiable raw files online, but the scripts allow a user to see what steps we performed to get the processed data we do share. Saccade and fixation "raw" data were output as saccade and fixation reports from EyeLink's Data Viewer software. One step of pre-processing is to ensure that variable names are as obvious as possible, and we think (and hope) that in the context of the script, it is clear what each variable we call is. In *bootstrappingBhv.csv*: - *participant* is the participant's id number - *trial* is the trial number - *span_length* is the number of items in the list, always 7 - *layout* is the keypad condition - *digit1* through *digit7* are the digits that were presented on that trial, where 1 denotes the first, etc. - *resp1* through *resp7* are the responses participants gave when asked to recall the seven digits - The 10 *_content* variables are what appeared in each cell of the grid - The 7 *_acc* variables are accuracy (1 = correct) per each serial position - *num_correct* is the number of digits reported correctly in order (out of a possible 7) - *list_correct* is listwise accuracy (whole list correct = 1) - *digits* is the whole presented list entered in a single cell The saccade and fixation data frames include many of the same variables. The fixation data frame also includes a selection of output from Data Viewer. Variable names from Data Viewer are also descriptive, and their precise meaning can be looked up in the Data Viewer manual. - *IP_LABEL* is the interest period the fixation occurred during - *IP_INDEX* is the serial order within the trial of the interest period - *CURRENT_FIX_INDEX* is the serial order within the trial of the recorded fixation - *_NEAREST_INTEREST_AREA_LABEL* is the name of the interest area the fixation was in or closest to. - *_DURATION* is the duration of the fixation in milliseconds - *_START* is the ms within the trial in which the fixation began and *_END* is the point in which it ended The saccade data frame includes per-trial summaries rather than raw saccade data (see pre-processing script for more details). These are the mean amplitudes, total number of saccades and saccades to valid interest areas recorded during presentation and retention interest periods.
