Hej Tarun,
I found myself with the same question at the beginning of my PhD
two years ago. I don't have experience with any special software
for perceptual experiments. Well, since you mentioned you are
completely new to this I assume you are at the starting point of
your research, so, I would strongly recommend you to learn a
programming language (if you don't know one already) and program
your experiments yourself. I know it might look scaring at the
beginning but certainly pays off. The main advantage I see, is
that there are no black boxes in your experiment chain, you can
have complete control over it and adjust everything as you wish.
If you focus on learning object-oriented programming you will
realize that you can easily reuse code for further experiments
without spending so much time.

Hi all,
I plan to do some perceptual experiments during the course of my
research here. Since, I am completely new to this, I wanted to
know if there are any softwares that help in doing perceptual
experiments (organising stimuli, collecting results, designing
questionairre, making the interface etc)?
Thanks and Regards
Tarun
