Information Analysis of Choice Behavior in Producing Acoustical Signals
Michel M. Hupet · The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America · 1972
Instead of presenting a perceptual stimulus to which a subject must assign numerical response, he is given a number from 1 to N and must then generate corresponding motor response. The amounts of information transmitted in producing acoustical signals varying in only one dimension, either their SPL (between 50 and 105 dB) or their frequency (between 50 and 6000 Hz), are compared to the amounts of transmitted information in identifying analogous signals.
