Thresholds and (or?) Signal Detection Theory

Richard A. Campbell
Veterans Administration Regional Office, Atlanta, Georgia

Discussions of signal detection theory and psychophysics (acquiring thresholds) appear unanimous in condemning the threshold as an adequate measure of the sensory system of a listener. The viewpoint is here presented that signal detection theory and thresholds need not he antagonistic concepts. Rather, a plea is made for the utilization of signal detection theory information to develop more adequate threshold-obtaining procedures.
