A Primer of Signal Detection Theory is being reprinted to fill the
gap in literature on Signal Detection Theory--a theory that is
still important in psychology, hearing, vision, audiology, and
related subjects. This book is intended to present the methods of
Signal Detection Theory to a person with a basic mathematical
background. It assumes knowledge only of elementary algebra and
elementary statistics. Symbols and terminology are kept at a basic
level so that the eventual and hoped for transfer to a more
advanced text will be accomplished as easily as possible. Intended
for undergraduate students at an introductory level, the book is
divided into two sections. The first part introduces the basic
ideas of detection theory and its fundamental measures. Its aim is
to enable the reader to be able to understand and compute these
measures. It concludes with a detailed analysis of a typical
experiment and a discussion of some of the problems which can arise
for the potential user of detection theory. The second section
considers three more advanced topics: threshold theory, the
extension of detection theory, and an examination of Thurstonian
scaling procedures.
