On Scaling From Incomplete Paired Comparison Matrix
The first part dealt with scaling of uj from data djk corresponding to (uj-uk), j, k=1, 2, ..., n, where djk are not available for all possible pairs. The generality of the procedure in the sense that djk can be obtained in various ways and the importance of incomplete data in practice were discussed. It was shown with an example that uj obtained by the method proposed by Gulliksen (1956) is sometimes critically affected by choice of the origin a…
Strategies in Attaining Conjunctive Concept
With stimuli consisting of 5 alphabetical letters, processes to attain conjunctive concepts defined by 2 critical letters were studied. The data thus collected, 120 cases, were stratified according to strategies which were inferred from verbal reports of the S on each trial about the basis of guessing as well as from the performance. Two strategies were simulated;Ss in G-1 and G-2 retained all the letters in the first positive card and eliminated…

Experiments on Memory and Visual Scannings
Lists of s nouns (s up to 36) of one or two categories were memorized to the first perfect recitation (M) or visually presented (V), and Ss had to judge whether a given target was in the list or not. NO response was of two kinds; NO to a word of the same category with the list and NO to a word of an entirely different category (N′). Mean reaction time as a function of s exhibits the patterns which are in accordance with the following scanning mod…
Strategies in Concept Identification
A total of 455 cases, 5 tasks by 91 subjects, of the simplest form of concept identification with stimuli, each consisting of 5 letters, were stratified into 8 groups according to strategies used by the subjects. Two representative strategies were identified through verbal reports of the subjects and also differences in performance: whole-letter strategy to pursue all of an appropriate set of letters simultaneously and one-letter strategy to test…
Formation of Subjective Value
Formation of Subjective Value
Subjective value toward an object is ordinarily formed on the basis of a composite of relevant informations concerning with the object. Three mathematical models were described about the functional relationship between the overall value and the values of individual informations: additive, negative exponential, and positive exponential. All the empirical data presented (preferences towards electric washer, sewing machine, dishwasher, and evaluatio…
Application of Four Stochastic Models to Learning of Numerical Sequences
The task is to learn numerical sequences, 8 in total, by anticipating each new member of the sequences. With the data of 50 university students, four stochastic models were fitted to the decomposed subprocesses, each under a subrule. The subprocesses were 24 in all. The single-operator model of Bush and Sternberg accounts for the easier subprocesses where as the subprocesses of intermediate difficulty were best fitted by the two-phase model of No…
The Amount of Transmitted Information in Confusion Matrix
The amount of transmitted information Ht is frequently used as an index for confusability in a confusion matrix. However, the value of Ht is not only determined by the degree of being less confused but also is a function of the size of confusion matrix. Larger, the number of rows and/or columns, larger the value of Ht, which makes difficult to make comparisons in terms of Ht of confusability among confusion matrices of different size. Two example…
Hue-Discrimination Thresholds and Hue-Coefficients
Twelve sets of directly obtained hue-discrimination thresholds, from König up to Weale, were plotted in a figure and a representative curve as a function of wavelength was determined. With this curve, 3 sets of theoretical thresholds were compared, one derived from multidimensional scaling by Shepard with Ekman's data, one from multidimensional scaling by Shepard and Carroll with Boynton and Gordon's data, the other from the opponent-colors theor…
A General Equi-Distance Scale of the Four Qualities of Taste
An equi-distance scale of intensity for the four primary qualities of taste has been constructed. Direct assessments of difference in intensity were made of two solutions presented in pairs; pairs of solutions of different concentration of the same substance or pairs of solutions of different substances. With a special procedure of analysis, it has been shown that a single common core component is definable throughout eight Ss' individual criteri…
An Experimental Study of the Luneburg Theory of Binocular Space Perception (3)
As a part of a series of experimental studies upon the Luneburg theory of binocular visual space, results were described of the 3-and 4-point experiments and of the parallel and distance alley experiments all having been carried out with three Ss in a spacious dark field. Light points were at eye level and the farthest one was 1610 cm apart from the S. Analysis was made in terms of the theory with the modified mapping function introduced by Blank…

By means of measuring the enhancement of the electrical excitability of the eye when it is pre-illuminated by stimulating patterns, Motokawa has discovered a number of phenomena which are now well known as the retinal induction The induction is divided into two types, direct and indirect, and it is the latter which especially attracts our interest because it propagates over the retina from one part to another, according to Motokawa, in the form o…
