Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The term "just noticeable difference" refers to the smallest difference in a stimulus that can be detected by an observer, and is also known as the difference threshold. Option A ("just say when effect") is not a recognized term in psychology. Option B ("statoacoustic effect") is not directly related to the topic of detection thresholds. Option D ("signal detection error rate") is not the same as the difference threshold, but instead refers to the likelihood of an observer making a detectability judgment error. Option E ("absolute threshold") refers to the minimum intensity of a stimulus required for an observer to detect it, which is a related concept but not the same as the just noticeable difference.
