Psychophysics
Baird & Noma (1978)
“Psychophysics is commonly defined as the quantitative
branch of the study of perception, examining the relations
between observed stimuli and responses and the reasons for
those relations. This is, however, a very narrow view of the
influence it has had on much of psychology. Since its
inception, psychophysics has been based on the assumption
that the human perceptual system is a measuring instrument
yielding results (experiences, judgments, responses) that may
be systematically analyzed. Because of its long history (over
140 years), its experimental methods, data analyses, and
models of underlying perceptual and cognitive processes
have reached a high level of refinement. For this reason,
many techniques originally developed in psychophysics have
been used to unravel problems in learning, memory, attitude
measurement, and social psychology. In addition, scaling and
measurement theory have adapted these methods and
models to analyze decision making in contexts entirely
divorced from perception”

Psychophysics
Macmillan & Creelman (1991)
“Detection theory is a general psychophysical approach
to measuring performance. Its scope includes the
everyday experimentation of many psychologists, social
and medical scientists, and students of decision
processes.”
Green & Swets (1974)
“The (signal detection) theory provides a means of
analyzing the essential structure of the observer’s
decisions in psychophysical tasks ... suggestions for
appropriate procedure for data collection and analysis.”
