Abstract

We describe the Glance software package, which takes advantage of tablet PC technology to control experiments that require participants to reconstruct complex stimuli, as with the Chase and Simon (1973) chess reconstruction task, and to present tests that require participants to refer briefly to critical displays, as with the digit-symbol task. Participants press the space bar, which allows access to the stimulus and, simultaneously, prohibits drawing on the tablet. At release of the space bar--or optionally, after some period of time--the stimulus is hidden, and the drawing tools are enabled. Output from Glance allows analysis as fine grained as each stroke or as coarse as the entire image.
