A study is a general term for a research project.
An experiment is a specific set of steps and actions that will be conducted with a participant and robot.
An trial is a specific instance of an experiment. It is a single run of the experiment with a specific participant and robot.
A step is a general term for something that is being done in the experiment. It is represented as a collection of actions that are being done in a specific order.
An action is a specific operation that is being done (like "move to position", "press button", "say something", etc.) These are the smallest atomic units of the platform.
A participant is a person that has been added to a study. This person does not have an account.
A user is a person that has an account, which is a person that has been added to a study. Anyone can sign up for an account, but they must be added to a study or create their own. A user can have one of many roles, but can only have one role at a time. They can be in one or more studies, allowing them to have different roles in different studies.
A role is a set of permissions that a user has in a study. A user can have one or more roles, but can only have one role at a time per study.
A permission is a specific action that a user can perform in a study. Permissions are grouped into categories, and each category has a set of permissions.
Roles and permissions:
An admin is a user with all permissions in a study. This is usually the creator of the study, but may not be the principal investigator. The principal investigator is the PI of the project- may not be the creator of the study on the platform A wizard is a user that can run experiment trials, and can view the results of the trials. A researcher is a user that can view the results of the trials, and interpret the data.
