Scientific investigation of human behavior using iPhone.
(A) Illustration of the large scale scientific instrument for the study of human behavior. (B) Histograms of correct response times on English words as a function of word frequency (very high frequency words such as “WITH”, VHF; high frequency, HF; low frequency, LF; very low frequency such as “ORANGEADE”, VLF). Histograms were computed using 100 ms bins (“+” signs linked by a spline interpolation function). (C) Scatterplot of mean correct response times on words binned by word frequency in groups of 2500.
