Primes¶
- Logarithmic Perception and Encoding
- Psychophysics (Weber/Fechner) — just-noticeable differences are proportional to baseline intensity; subjective magnitude is logarithmic in physical intensity for many channels.
This sourceOriginates the psychophysical law that subjective sensation grows as the logarithm of stimulus intensity, integrating Weber's constant just-noticeable-difference ratio.

- Threshold
- Perception research grounds psychophysical thresholds and Weber's law in threshold mechanics, with Fechner (1860) providing the canonical psychophysical synthesis linking just-noticeable differences to absolute and difference limens.
