EXPONENTIAL VALUES OF THE PSYCHOPHYSICAL POWER FUNCTION FOR SUCROSE OBTAINED BY TWO DIFFERENT ESTIMATION METHODS

JAN H. A. KROEZE

Psychological Laboratory, State University Utrecht The Netherlands

Two methods of magnitude estimation were compared with each other. In one condition subjects made a numerical judgement of a series of taste stimuli. In the other condition the same subjects were required to express their intensity judgement by matching the length of a line to it. The resulting exponents of the two psychophysical power functions did not differ from each other. The meaning of this result is briefly discussed.
