چکیده انگلیسی
We present a new mathematical notion, dissimilarity function, and based on it, a radical extension of Fechnerian Scaling, a theory dealing with the computation of subjective distances from pairwise discrimination probabilities. The new theory is applicable to all possible stimulus spaces subject to the following two assumptions: (A) that discrimination probabilities satisfy the Regular Minimality law and (B) that the canonical psychometric increments of the first and second kind are dissimilarity functions. A dissimilarity function Dab for pairs of stimuli in a canonical representation is defined by the following properties: (1) aâ bâ¹Dab>0; (2) Daa=0; (3) If Dananâ²â0 and Dbnbnâ²â0, then Danâ²bnâ²-Danbnâ0; and (4) for any sequence {anXnbn}nâN, where Xn is a chain of stimuli, DanXnbnâ0â¹Danbnâ0. The expression DaXb refers to the dissimilarity value cumulated along successive links of the chain aXb. The subjective (Fechnerian) distance between a and b is defined as the infimum of DaXb+DbYa across all possible chains X and Y inserted between a and b.
