Efficient estimation of stereo thresholds: What slope should be assumed for the psychometric function?

Bayesian staircases are widely used in psychophysics to estimate detection thresholds. Simulations have revealed the importance of the parameters selected for the assumed subject's psychometric function in enabling thresholds to be estimated with small bias and high precision. One important par...
