Empirica: a virtual lab for high-throughput macro-level experiments.
Abdullah Almaatouq,Joshua Becker,James P. Houghton,Nicolas Paton,Duncan J. Watts,Mark E. Whiting +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a modular virtual lab called empirica is proposed to increase the accessibility of virtual lab experiments, remove barriers to innovation in experiment design, and enable rapid progress in the understanding of human behavior.

Empirica: a virtual lab for high-throughput macro-level experiments
Abdullah Almaatouq,Joshua Becker,James P. Houghton,Nicolas Paton,Duncan J. Watts,Mark E. Whiting +5 more
TL;DR: Empirica is a modular virtual lab that offers a solution to the usability–functionality trade-off by employing a “flexible defaults” design strategy, which enables us to maintain complete “build anything” flexibility while offering a development platform that is accessible to novice programmers.
