Disclosed is method, system, and program for defining and administering a test to determine human perceptions of observable samples, such as printed text or images, sounds, motion pictures, etc. based on multiple factors. A displayable test building window includes input fields to receive input on at least one observable sample set according the multidimensional scaling experiment. Generated in a data gathering window is at least one perception input field for each observable sample set. The observer is capable of entering perception information in each input field concerning the observable samples. Observer perception input on the observable samples is received and stored. Statistical analysis is then performed on the entered perception input. A report is generated displaying the results of the multidimensional scaling calculations in the form of plots.

System and method of automating multidimensional scaling for psychophysics

Disclosed is method, system, and program for defining and administering a test to determine human perceptions of observable samples, such as printed text or images, sounds, motion pictures, etc. A displayable test building window includes input fields to receive input on at least one observable sample according to at least one type of experiment. Generated in a data gathering window is at least one perception input field for each observable sample and at least one type of experiment. The observer is capable of entering perception information in each input field concerning the observable samples. Observer perception input on the observable samples is received and stored. Statistical analysis is then performed on the entered perception input.
