Review:

Tim Klitz, Washington & Jefferson College: "Since I have the co-creator of CogLab in my email box, I just wanted to tell you how very very happy I have been with the CogLab product. I've been using CogLab for a number of years, and it has allowed me to turn my "regular" Cognitive Psychology class into a much better class by integrating labs throughout the term. The improvements in CogLab 2.0 have also been nice as well, including the ability to look at individual, group, and national data, and some small changes in the labs that have matched the methodologies closer to the original studies. I can't imagine the amount of work that went into creating CogLab, and I'm sure just as much work has gone into keeping servers up to speed, updating labs, etc. Thank you for creating such a fabulous product!"
