Abstract

This work is a continuation of efforts to develop a psychophysics of form similarity appropriate to the study of concept learning. 5 configurations of dots were studied. The psychophysical functions relating perceived distance from the original to each level of distortion were linear. The level of distortion was calculated from the statistical rule generating the distortions and expressed in term of uncertainty.
