Abstract

Using an adaptation of the Stevens' scaling technique, 25 Ss estimated subjective angular velocity during constant angular acceleration in darkness. Acceleration intensities varied from 3°/sec-super(2)-24°/sec-super(2), with stimulus durations ranging from 10-80 sec. The exponent of the power function relating the subjective and intensive dimensions is on the order of 1. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved)
