Oh my, there are so many...

The Holmes and Rahe (1967) scale for estimating emotional stress of various events (death, retirement, speeding ticket) was done with a M. E. procedure.

M. E. can be used to scale fear-inducing stimuli in systematic desensitization (Tryon, 1977).

M. E. can be used to scale amount of intoxication (Ekman et al., 1964) and severity of psychiatric symptoms (Stone, 1968).

Hi,
I'm currently talking to my students about psychophysical methods and
would like to give them some real-world examples of magnitude
estimation. I can come up with things like pain, comets, and
earthquakes, but I wonder if any of you have better examples.

Thanks,
Carol
