BITTSy creates a of all events that occur within a session. This means that everything is logged, allowing full access to data. However, these detailed files are not particularly user-friendly. A takes information from the log file and summarizes it in a manner more useful to the experimenter. We have tried to anticipate common summary information that might be desired, but additional summary analyses can be created from the detailed log file at any time.

For more information on the data obtainable from sessions run with BITTSy, see other pages in the Data Output section of the navigation pane.
