Measures of intensity discrimination
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1982Several different measures have been employed in the literature to describe performance by human observers in intensity discrimination tasks. These measures include the difference limen (DL) or ’’ΔI in dB,’’ the Weber fraction (ΔI/I), and signal-to-masker ratio (Ps/Pm).

Measuring Income Tax Discrimination [PDF]
Review of Economics and Statistics, 1999 We propose a procedure for measuring the effect of systematic discrimination in the income tax. Different socioeconomic groups are assumed to face different tax schedules. We show that a welfare loss is caused by the group specificity of schedules, the dollar value of which is our measure of discrimination.

Clinical measurement of saturation discrimination
Applied Optics, 1987In this paper, we describe how a circular reflective neutral-density wedge can be used to construct an apparatus which provides a relatively rapid procedure for the clinical measurement of saturation discrimination. Subsequent to an initial measurement of the patient's relative luminosity function, the patient need only turn a single control which ...

Local quantum measurement discrimination
Physical Review A, 2007We study a scheme for a local quantum measurement discrimination, i.e., the estimation via local measurements on $B$ of previous measurements done in $A$ for a composed bipartite system $AB$. The common bath plays a crucial role in the process.

Discrimination Measures Using Contingency Tables
Multivariate Behavioral Research, 1990Discrimination in organizations based on race or sex is a contentious issue. Sensible discussion of the issue will be enhanced by the availability of measures of discrimination enabling comparisons to be made between organizations and across time. Linear models are of limited validity. A contingency table approach is suggested.

Measurement of Pitch Discrimination
Journal of Research in Music Education, 1973Two attitudes are detectable in the research of psychologists interested in the measurement of musical abilities. Some researchers have accepted the dictum originally expressed by Seashore that Inusicality comprises a number of component abilities, each of which is capable of individual measurement.l Investigations based on this viewpoint have taken ...
