Many courtroom studies use a transcript format (with Q: and A: speaker prompts) for presenting information to participants. This format may not be engaging for participants and can lead to confusion in terms of speakers. We are developing an R package (‘courtr’) that follows the format of our previous research studies, which includes a text box, speech bubbles, and cartoon characters (we are currently designing a study to validate the use of these cartoon characters. You can view the study and provide feedback here: https://shiny.srvanderplas.com/characters/). In this presentation, I will go through the process of creating an R package, using ‘courtr’ as an example.
