ON THE PROBLEM OF HYSTERESIS IN PSYCHOPHYSICS.

Abstract

Subjective velocity was estimated by modified methods of magnitude estimation and category rating, presenting the stimuli in ascending and descending series separately. Hysteresis was found and the mid-points were predicted with good precision from a model describing the relation between category and magnitude scales. (Author)
