• E-Prime

• Psyscope

• PXLab
  Free software I don't anything about, except that it runs on anything
• MiniJudge 0.1 (Excel VBA version)
  Free software (programmed by me) to design, run and analyze "minimalist" experiments in syntactic judgments.
  It contains macros, so you will get a warning when you try to download it.
  You'll have to trust me that it doesn't contain any virus.
  It is very buggy and doesn't really do what it's supposed to do,
  but it does illustrate the basic idea of "minimalist" experimentation.
  A more sophisticated Java version is in the works, so comments are most welcome.
