The Application of Statistical Methods to the Problems of Psychophysics (Classic Reprint) - Hardcover
Synopsis
Explore how scientists measure how we judge differences in sensations.
This edition explains how judgments about stimulus differences are treated as predictable, mathematical processes. It shows how theories of probability and error guide the analysis of psychophysical data, using ideas like the method of least squares and interpolation to turn observations into usable functions.
- Learn how psychometric functions describe the chances of lighter, heavier, or equal judgments as differences change.
- See how experiments are designed to map these functions and estimate their key parameters.
- Discover the role of simple interpolation methods in predicting responses for unseen differences.
- Understand how researchers compare subjects by looking at how their judgments and uncertainties relate.
