How Gorilla supports executive function researchers

Executive function research demands reliable timing, controlled trial structures, counterbalancing, and the ability to reach adequately powered samples.

With Gorilla, researchers can implement inhibition, switching, and working-memory paradigms using intuitive visual builders — no coding needed.

Gorilla delivers the experimental structure and scalability required to study cognitive control with rigour.
