| 21 | Signal Detection Theory | The theory that an Absolute Threshold varies with one's psychological state and past experiences. | Chapter 5:Sensation |
| 22 | signal detection theory | In contrast to the classical psychophysics approach, this theory assesses both the observer’s sensitivity (or ability to detect a weak stimulus) & the observer’s criterion (or willingness to say, “I detect the stimulus,” when it is not clear whether the stimulus has been presented). Expectations & prior knowledge influence the probability of the observer’s recognition. | Chapter 4 Sensation & Perception |
