Modeling Imageless Thought: The Relative Judgment Theory of Numerical Comparisons
The mental process of comparing numbers is shown to follow the principles of Relative Judgment Theory. Martingale predictions of the theory are confirmed in an extensive study of numerical comparisons using the Method of Symmetric Differences. The theory is then used as a tool to reveal the Psychonumeric Function relating psychological difference to numerical difference. This function transform...
متن کاملRanks of modules relative to a torsion theory
Relative to a hereditary torsion theory $tau$ we introduce a dimension for a module $M$, called {em $tau$-rank of} $M$, which coincides with the reduced rank of $M$ whenever $tau$ is the Goldie torsion theory. It is shown that the $tau$-rank of $M$ is measured by the length of certain decompositions of the $tau$-injective hull of $M$. Moreover, some relations between the $tau$-rank of $M$ and c...

متن کاملAbsolute identification by relative judgment.
In unidimensional absolute identification tasks, participants identify stimuli that vary along a single dimension. Performance is surprisingly poor compared with discrimination of the same stimuli. Existing models assume that identification is achieved using long-term representations of absolute magnitudes. The authors propose an alternative relative judgment model (RJM) in which the elemental ...
متن کاملAbsolute versus relative likelihood judgment
In this paper we investigate how people construct absolute and relative likelihood judgments. We document systematic violations of two fundamental probability axioms that can occur when evidence for an event H and its complement not-H are stronger than evidence for another event L and its complement not-L. First, H is judged “more likely” than L, while L is assigned a higher probability than H,...
