This course was organized to acquaint students with the principles and methods of psychophysics, including programming in the MATLAB environment and its PsychToolbox extension. With the guidance of mentors, students designed and implemented psychophysics experiments, focusing on emotion perception, visual search, perceptual bias, time perception, and perceptual decision-making.

In order to train researchers in the field of cognitive psychology, the goal of this course is to increase the ability of individuals to use search tools, design experiments, and analyze various types of data in the field of cognitive psychology. In this course, five topics will be taught from two perspectives: theoretical foundations (problem statement, research history, and challenges) and clinical (clinical applications with a research approach):
