Some of my research and teaching has been about building tools and infrastructure (and some infrastructure has been more incidental). These projects are listed here!

Harmonized datasets:

• Peekbank I’m part of the team for Peekbank, an open repository of over 40 datasets of children’s looking-while-listening data

• Refbank Refbank is an open repository of datasets from iterated reference games

Maze task:

• Maze documentation I built infrastructure for automatically generating distractors for the Maze task using language models. This is somewhat out of data, but likely to be revamped for newer models in 2026.

• Maze for jsPsych undocumented plugin for running maze tasks in jsPsych. Likely will get improvements and better documentation in 2026.

• Demos of Maze tasks run in jsPsych using automatically generated distractors can be found at https://vboyce.github.io/maze-demos/

Teaching methods:

• Experiments for methods class As a TA for Psych 125 (undergraduate research methods), I implemented 8 replications of prior psychology studies (hand-picked for previous replication success) to run online. We also collected a replication samples of data for students to analyse. The repository has the code to run the studies (mostly in jspsych, as a demonstration), our collected data, and milestones/skeleton analysis code that was given to students.

Reproducible manuscript templates:

• Cogsci Rmd template I updated a previous port of the cogsci template for Rmd.

• Stanford dissertation Rmd template Of even narrower interest, I made a fork of the thesisdown package when I wrote my dissertation.
