Signal detection theory places a major emphasis on decision-making processes in perception of thresholds. It focuses on the individual's ability to detect a signal from noise and how they determine whether or not a signal is present based on their decision-making processes. Weber's law, Fechner's law, and Steven's power factor all deal with the relationship between physical stimuli and perceived sensation or intensity, but do not focus specifically on decision-making processes.
