Abstract
When a long series of threshold stimuli are presented, similar responses occur more frequently than would be expected of independent events. This serial effect is shown, from results of 50 Os judging auditory intensity threshold stimuli, to be a function of the inter-stimulus interval, being greater with short inter-stimulus intervals. It is suggested that it is also a function of other conditions.Keywords
