The Brain & Behaviour Lab is located on the 4th floor of the MF-building (A-wing). The easiest way to find it is to take the stairs or elevator located at the front entrance of the MF-building. When you are on the 4th floor, take the hallway that takes you t...

The lab contains rooms that are part of both the A-wing and the B-wing. All 3 rooms starting with B-447 (a, b, & c) are EEG labs and all 4 rooms starting with B-449 (a, b, c, & d) are eye tracking labs. However, both spaces (B-447 & B-449) are equipped with ...

All computers in the lab that are used for presenting stimuli or monitoring EEG (Biosemi PCs; using ActiView) are windows computers of the model Dell Precision 3680 Tower. You can find the exact specifications for the PCs used in the labs below. Alternativel...

In the lab, we make use of different monitors. In the behavioural cubicles, there is only one monitor. In the EEG or EyeLink set-ups, there are at least 2 monitors. All monitors that are used for presenting stimuli are of the model ASUS ROG Strix XG248Q . Th...

There are all sorts of support or peripheral equipment in the lab that you can use. Some of them are described below. If you need something specific for your research, you can discuss this with the Lab Coordinator to see what is possible.  If you notice tha...

There are 18 cubicles available for behavioural research. They are labeled with a letter (A-W, except for G,M,N,O and P). The cubicles cannot be booked beforehand. If you want to use them, you can simply go to the Brain & Behaviour Lab and select free cubic...

The behavioural cubicles in the labs (A437-A to A437-W, excluding the Eyelink Cubicles) are equipped with live camera monitoring to ensure the safety and well-being of participants and maintain the integrity of experiments. The live stream is conducted throu...

There are nine rooms with an Eyelink system available. The eye trackers have different models and specs. Please think of what you need for your experiment before you reserve a specific lab.  Example of one the Desktop Mount Eyelink cameras:         All ni...

The different rooms have slightly different models of the EyeLink devices. Here is an overview. Make sure to consider this carefully! Space B449 & EyeLink Cubicles The rooms in B449 (a, b, c, and d) and the EyeLink cubicles (A437m/n & A437p/o) make use of:...

In the Multicubicles (A-429 and A-435), you can do all sorts of experiments that require a larger space. These rooms are flexible in use. An example of their use is Virtual Reality.               These rooms need to be booked. You can find instructions for...

This website works in a different way than the old Brain & Behaviour information website. Here we explain how and give tips on how to navigate it well.  The structure is quite intuitive. You have books - in this case the "Brain & Behaviour Lab"; books have ...

In the Brain & Behaviour Lab, there are a total of 7 BioSemi systems. Three of them are permanently in B-447(A, B, & C). Two of them are rotated in the rooms of B-449(A, B, C, & D). The remaining two BioSemi systems can be used on request in B-449 (contact t...

We have two models of Biosemi A/D-boxes. Two are the newest ActiveThree's and the remaining five are ActiveTwo's/Active2.5's. ActiveThree Two rooms of B-447 (A & B), make use of the newest BioSemi ActiveThree systems. These work primarily the same as the o...

This is a manual for general use of EEG based on the "Quick Reference Guide" by Jonathan van Leeuwen.  Before Participant Arrives  Turn on computer. Turn on Actiview on BioSemi computer. Start the experiment on the experiment computer. Check battery, ...

Here we describe the general procedure when conducting eye-tracking experiments.  Steps  Check that the participant is not wearing eye make-up like mascara or hard contact lenses since these will both interfere with the measurement of eye movements. If t...
