“…Thus, it could be argued that the pattern of bivariate correlations, the use of likelihood ratio bounds, and the addition of a noise distribution are distortions forced upon the signal detection framework to cope with a compression pattern that, in reality, largely reflects scale-usage phenomena. In line with this argument, the potentially distorting role of response processes is currently receiving increased attention in the signal detection literature (Benjamin, Diaz, & Wee, 2009;Mueller & Weidemann, 2008).…”
