一种技术,用于生成一个比例尺度的任何心理物理连续统,由Ss主观随机产生的连续描述和用于规模的数值大小,持续时间和线的长度。人们感知到的数字的大小是其绝对大小的一个逐渐减速的函数,但从10到1000,它近似于对数。1-500的范围与指数约为2/3的幂函数很好地拟合。共对126名研究生和本科生进行了9个实验。结果捍卫的立场,心理规模的数字是压缩,他们探讨了一些可能的文物在随机生产技术。数字,线长度和持续时间之间的跨模态匹配预测从随机生产规模为每个这些方面。预测给出幂函数,其指数与以前的实验估计有一定的一致性。随机生产规模的握力,电击强度和主观面积是一致的,他们的规模估计规模,鉴于该数字的指数为2/3。(50参考)(PsycINFO数据库记录(c)2016阿帕,保留所有权利)
A technique for generating a ratio scale for any psychophysical continuum by having Ss generate subjectively random productions on that continuum is described and used to scale numerical magnitude, duration, and line length. The perceived magnitude of numbers grows as an increasingly decelerated function of their absolute magnitude, but it is approximately logarithmic from 10 to 1,000. The range of 1-500 is fitted well with a power function with an exponent of about 2/3. 9 experiments were conducted with a total of 126 graduate and undergraduate students. Results defend the position that the psychological scale of number is compressive, and they explore a number of possible artifacts in the random-production technique. Cross-modality matches between numbers, line lengths, and durations are predicted from the random-production scales derived for each of these dimensions. The predictions give power functions whose exponents are in some agreement with previous experimental estimates. Random-production scales for hand-grip force, intensity of electric shocks, and subjective area are consistent with their magnitude-estimation scales, given that number has an exponent of 2/3.(50 ref)(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
