Abstract
A model for direct multidimensional ratio scaling is presented, based on the concepts “common” and “difference” of the “halos” of two percepts. Measures of halos and their differences are proportional to lengths of corresponding percept vectors and their distance in subjective space. Ekman type scaling judgements are assumed to reflect the ratio measure of the common/measure of the standard's halo. The model is supposed to yield results that are in line with the results of distance models of multidimensional ratio scaling since negative scalar products of percept vectors are admitted.Keywords
