[post]

Identifying the best framework for two-choice decision-making has been a goal of psychology theory for many decades (Bohil, Szalma, & Hancock, 2015; Macmillan & Creelman, 1991). There are two main candidates: the theory of signal detectability (TSD) (Swets, Tanner Jr, & Birdsall, 1961; Thurstone, 1927) based on a normal distribution/probit function, and the choice-model theory (Link, 1975; Luce, 1959) that uses the logistic distribution/logit function. A probit link function, and hence TSD, was
