z-Tree is a software tool designed for developing and conducting economic experiments. It is known for its stability, ease of use, and flexibility in programming various types of experiments. The software uses a simple and compact programming language, allowing users to quickly develop experiments without extensive programming experience. z-Tree supports both normal form games and extensive form games, including double auctions and clock auctions. The latest version of z-Tree introduces significant improvements, such as the ability to display graphics, graphical representation of data, and a chat function for subject interaction. The software also enhances its usability for neuroeconomic applications by improving timing precision and supporting external hardware. However, it has limitations, including delays in screen presentation timing and the lack of a general interface for external hardware. Future developments aim to address these limitations and improve the programming language to facilitate more complex experiments.z-Tree is a software tool designed for developing and conducting economic experiments.
