Sample script: Replication of Parasuraman, Molloy and Singh (1993)

# Replication of Parasuraman, Molloy and Singh (1993)

# This experiment aims to investigate the performance consequences of automation-induced complacency

# Example of a low-reliability block (10 minutes, with 56.25% or 9 of 16 malfunctions detected)

# Timestamp in h:mm:ss format. Duration values in milliseconds.
