The ratio is called the "Weber fraction," so a concise statement of Weber's law is that "the Weber fraction is constant, regardless of the stimulus intensity." It turns out that Weber's law is not so much a law as it is a rule of thumb, since it is violated in many situations. For instance, for some auditory stimuli, the Weber fraction does depend systematically on the stimulus intensity. The following bivariate data are the experimental data obtained for one listener in an auditory intensity discrimination task. For each of the ten stimulus intensities x (in decibels), the Weber fraction y (in decibels) is shown. Figure 1 is a scatter plot of the data. Also given is the product of the stimulus intensity and the Weber fraction…arrow_forward
