Welcome to Jon Westfall's Software Based Experiment Resource site. This site will begin it's life to serve as a supplement to my contribution to the SJDM Computing Symposium, and continue on as a resource to other social scientists that seek simple solutions to building software. (Whoa, Holy Alliteration Batman!) If you have any questions, feel free to contact me for more information. SK3 : An example of using Microsoft Visual Studio, Microsoft Internet Information Server, and Microsoft Frontpage extensions to build rich web-delivered data collection software. SK3 is a multi-stage escalation of commiment / Sunk Cost problem that presents the user various pieces of information and tracks what they look at, how long they look, and in what order they look before making a decision to continue to the next part or terminate the project. The problem used in SK3 is adapted from Schmidt & Calantone, "Escalation of commitment during new product development", Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science, 30(2), 103-118 The source code provided here is licensed under the GPL. You are free to modify the work, however I do ask that you let me know of any modifications or revisions SK3 is written in VB.NET, Visual Studio 2005 Pebl: The Psychology Experiment Based Language LimeSurvey Microsoft Dreamspark Program (Provides free versions of Microsoft development tools to undergraduate and graduate students at colleges or universities around the world) My 2008 SJDM Poster may be downloaded here!             |
