Below we have collected information about psychTestR and psyquest.
The software packages psychTestR and psyquest were developed by the LongGold team for assessing cognitive and musical abilities as well as the the development of musicality in adolescents. psychTestR is an R package for creating interfaces of behavioural experiments. psyquest is an R package that contains a set of psychosocial and music-related questionnaires implemented as psychTestR modules within Shiny, a web development framework.
