A study of the sensory threshold

open access: gold, 1962
This thesis is concerned with the problem of defining the processes by which a subject selects a response to a stimulus. Initially certain topics in two areas of research, sensory scaling and threshold measurement, are revived. In relation to the first the conflict between Fechner's law, which is derived from threshold measurements, and the more recent

Studies that screen for both NIDDM and polyneuropathy in subjects without a history of glucose intolerance are rare and therefore welcome. In general, their cross-sectional data agree very well with our findings in a general Caucasian population.
