Description: S.S. Stevens' famous paper, On the psychophysical law, ignited a controversy relating to people's subjective judgements of physical reality. This brings together a diversity of ideas and a wealth of experimental evidence, and provides a challenging perspective on the question which has fragmented the research community for nearly 40 years.
