Document Summary
The difference between not being able to perceive a stimulus and being able to just. The minimum amount of sensory stimulation that can be detected 50% of the time. Sensation is the process through which the senses detect visual, auditory, and other sensory stimuli and transmit them to the brain. (your senses) Absolute threshold barely perceive it. the smallest amount of stimulation necessary for you to be able to detect. (ex. How much sugar or milk needs to be in for you to knottiest it) Just noticeable difference(cid:1689) (jnd) in sensation that is detectable 50% of the time. (too much sugar) (weather fraction is) (for something you need big difference to knottiest, for something you need small difference to knottiest) Amount of increase needed to make a difference. How much or how little there is. Detection of sensory stimulus involves noticing a stimulus from background noise and a.
