Experiment Report Name:曾翘楚 Zoe Major: Psychology No: 2012213970 Report time: 2013/12/25 The method of constant stimuli In troducti on Experime nt objective Have a good grasp of the method of con sta nt stimuli and measure the differe nee threshold of pitch. Experiment content Learn the method of constant stimuli. Do the experiment of measuring difference threshold of pitch and collect data the n an alysis it. Difference threshold of three kinds of reacti on: Up differe nce threshold (Dlu) = up- equal Lower differe nce threshold (Dli) =equal- lower Differe nce threshold= (Dlu+Dli)/2 Experiment meaning Method of con sta nt stimuli is one of the importa nt ways in classical psychological physics. The characteristic of the method of constant stimuli is a few stimulates, including 5 to 10, which is unchangeable in the whole procedure of measure. Every time a paired of stimulates are displayed, participa nts are required to compare the two stimuli and make a decisi on. When using the method of con sta nt stimuli to measure the differe nce threshold, participa nts are recomme nded to respond that whether the second stimulus is same to the first one, stronger or weaker than the first stimuli. In this way, we can get two turning points of feeli ngs. Further the n, we can get up-threshold and lower-threshold. Method Subject 4 college stude nts of CCNU. They are all females whose ages are range 18 to 20. Equipment or material Psykey experiment system and computers. A series of pitch including 7 pitch materials in different rate (691\694\697\700\703\706\709 or 688\692\698\700\704\708\712). A keyboard con tai ns a red bottom, a green bottom and a yellow bottom. procedure Before the formal experiment, we should do a prepare experiment in the method of minimal difference to measure a gen eral threshold. Accord ing to the results of prepare experime nt, we should choose differe nt series of pitch. In prepare test, the initial difference rate of pitch is 3Hz. Firstly, participants a
