1098 Fundamentals of Psychophysics
Tuesday 12-14 ETH ML H37.1
Adrian Schwaninger & Marino Menozzi
Description
In this lecture, which is a cooperation between the University and the Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) of Zurich, selected psychophysical methods are presented and applied in exercises. Psychophysics can be seen historically as the beginning of experimental psychology and it provides nowadays an interdisciplinary applied inventory of psychophysical methods for measuring sensory thresholds and scaling. This lecture is part of the Ergänzungs- and Vertiefungsprogramm in General Psychology and it takes place at the ETH Maschinenlabor, room ML H37.1, Sonneggstrasse 3 (near the tramway station ETH/Universitätsspital).
