A quest is the top-level container for a research study on NeuroFusion. It bundles together everything a study needs: prompts for recurring data collection, experiments for interactive tasks, onboarding for consent and screening, and health data configuration.

​
Quest Anatomy

Every quest contains a configuration object with the following components:
ComponentRequired?Description
Prompts✅ Yes (min 1)Recurring questions delivered on a schedule. See Prompts.
Onboarding QuestionsOptionalPre-join screening questions for eligibility. See Onboarding.
Onboarding OverviewOptionalRich HTML consent language shown before questions. See Full-Text Overview.
ExperimentsOptionalInteractive jsPsych tasks. See Experiments.
Health Data ConfigOptionalToggles for collecting steps, sleep, and heart_rate from wearables.
AssignmentOptionalPython script for counterbalancing / conditional experiment assignment. See Ordering & Assignment.
Analysis ScriptsOptionalPython scripts that run against collected datasets for quality checks, metrics, and processing. See Analysis Scripts.
Post-Experiment ScriptOptionalPython code to run after experiment completion.

​
Quest Lifecycle

  1. Draft — Quest is created and saved but not yet visible to participants
  2. Published — Quest is live and accessible via its URL (consumes credits — see Pricing)
  3. Active — Participants have joined and are submitting data
  4. Unpublished — Quest is taken offline; existing data is preserved

​
Organization Scope

Every quest belongs to an organization. When creating a quest, you select the organization using a dropdown. All billable actions on the quest (publishing, participant joins, data submissions) are charged to the quest’s organization.
You must create an organization before creating a quest. See Creating an Organization to get started.
