Psychology Terms - Adaptation level
A proposed neutral position within a bipolar stimulus dimension, serving as a reference point for subjective evaluations; stimuli exceeding the adaptation level are assessed as possessing a specific attribute (e.g., large, heavy, or loud), while stimuli below it are perceived as having the contrary or complementary attribute (e.g., small, light, or soft), and stimuli in close proximity are regarded as neutral concerning the attribute.
