A proposed matching-response model of psychophysical judgment suggests that observed differences in exponent for various modalities reflect differences in coupling coefficients.
The paper proposes a theoretical matching-response model of psychophysical judgment to explain power-law relationships between perceived intensity and stimulus strength.
A matching-response model of psychophysical judgment is proposed, in terms of which power-law relationships would be expected between perceived intensity and stimulus strength, even though receptors had logarithmic response characteristics. On this model, observed differences in exponent for various modalities would reflect differences in coupling coefficients, rather than in transducer mechanisms.
