The appearance of a statistical paper in a symposium honoring the founding of psychophysics was surely to have been expected. These two disciplines had their modern beginnings in about the same period of time and the well-known founders of each made at least some contributions in the other. Karl Pearson’s research [9] on the personal equation is still a good example of painstaking psychophysical experimentation. Indeed much of his statistical reputation rests on techniques he developed to analyze this data. Fifty years ago Urban [11, 12] published, in a psychological journal, the final form of the Miiller-Urban weights. Twenty years later biologists [7] rediscovered Urban’s weights and now use them routinely. Spearman, too, contributed to both fields.
