Abstract
Two linear operator models are presented for a class of learning situations in which the response is on a numerical scale and the subject is given the magnitude of his error on some or all of the trials. Theoretical expressions are developed for sequential dependencies, mean learning curves, variances, and covariances, which permit a number of tests of goodness of fit.Keywords
