Abstract
The general psychophysical differential equation, dy/dx = W 2(y)/W 1(x) , with the solution y = f( x), where x and y are subjective variables and W 1 and W 2 their subjective Weber functions, is (a) compared with a corresponding functional equation, and (b) studied from a stochastic point of view by error calculus, Methods for evaluating and handling divergences are proposed and illustrated for a number of combinations of Weber functions. It is shown that either the differential: and the functional equations have the same solution or the difference between the solutions is negligible compared to empirical scatter. The error calculus gives the same result: either no error at all or a negligible one.
