Two experimental procedures prompted the empirical development of
psychophysical models: those that measure response frequency, often
referred to as response probability; and those that measure
response time, sometimes referred to as reaction time. The history
of psychophysics is filled with theories that predict one or the
other of these two responses. Yet the persistent reappearance of
empirical relationships between these two measures of performance
makes clear the need for a theory that both predicts and relates
these two measures. Most likely, both response measures are the
result of a single process that generates empirical laws relating
response time and response probability. It is this process - its
theory, description, and application - that is the topic of The
Wave Theory of Difference and Similarity. Originally published in
1992, the author of this book has set out to provide a theoretical
foundation for formulating new theories that systematize earlier
results and to stimulate new concepts and introduce new tools for
exploring mental phenomena and improving mental measurement.
