"Utilizing" signal detection theory.

What do inferring what a person is thinking or feeling, judging a defendant's guilt, and navigating a dimly lit room have in common? They involve perceptual uncertainty (e.g., a scowling face might indicate anger or concentration, for which different responses are appropriate) and behavioral risk (e.g., a cost to making the wrong response). Signal detection theory describes these types of decis...

Signal Detection Theory (SDT)

Signal Detection Theory (often abridged as SDT) is used to analyze data coming from experiments where the task is to categorize ambiguous stimuli which can be generated either by a known process (called the signal) or be obtained by chance (called the noise in the SDT framework). For example a radar operator must decide if what she sees on the radar screen indicates the presence of a plane (the...

2 Multidimensional Signal Detection Theory

Multidimensional signal detection theory is a multivariate extension of signal detection theory that makes two fundamental assumptions, namely that every mental state is noisy and that every action requires a decision. The most widely studied version is known as general recognition theory (GRT). General recognition theory assumes that the percept on each trial can be modeled as a random sample ...

Teaching signal detection theory with pseudoscience

Citation: Anderson ND (2015) Teaching signal detection theory with pseudoscience. The Utility of Signal Detection Theory Signal detection theory (SDT) is a technique that can be used to evaluate sensitivity in decision-making. Initially developed by radar researchers in the early 1950s (Peterson et al., 1954), the value of SDT was quickly recognized by cognitive scientists and adapted for appli...

Boundary extension: Insights from signal detection theory.

After viewing a scene, people often remember having seen more of the world than was originally visible, an error referred to as boundary extension. Despite the large number of studies on this phenomenon, performance has never been considered in terms of signal detection theory (SDT). We report two visual memory experiments that allowed us to explore boundary extension in terms of SDT. In our ex...
