| auditory threshold | The audibility limit of discriminating sound intensity and pitch. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| brightness difference threshold | The smallest difference that can be perceived as a difference in brightness. Synonym: light difference. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pain threshold | Amount of stimulation required before the sensation of pain is experienced. (12 Dec 1998) |
| galvanic threshold | The minimal strength of an electrical stimulus of indefinite duration that is able to cause excitation of a tissue, e.g., muscle or nerve. See: chronaxie. Synonym: galvanic threshold. Origin: rheo-+ G. Basis, a base (05 Mar 2000) |
| relational threshold | The smallest degree of difference between two stimuli that permits them to be perceived as different. (05 Mar 2000) |
| visual threshold | Threshold of visual sensation, the minimal light intensity evoking a visual sensation. Synonym: achromatic threshold, minimum light threshold. (05 Mar 2000) |
| renal threshold | Concentration of plasma substance above which the substance appears in the urine. (05 Mar 2000) |
| phenotypic threshold | A quantitative genetic trait with a continuous distribution termed its liability may generate two kinds of phenotype, according to whether the liability lies above or below some critical threshold at about which a radical change in behaviour occurs. For instance, blood uric acid level is a liability with an approximately gaussian distribution. At a critical point of chemical saturation (the threshold crystallization occurs and the resulting gout or nongout is a threshold trait. (05 Mar 2000) |
| minimum light threshold | Threshold of visual sensation, the minimal light intensity evoking a visual sensation. Synonym: achromatic threshold, minimum light threshold. (05 Mar 2000) |
| convulsant threshold | The smallest amount of stimulation, electric current, or drug required to induce a convulsion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stimulus threshold | The lowest limit of any perception whatever. Compare: differential threshold. Synonym: stimulus threshold. (05 Mar 2000) |
| no-threshold concept | That the biologic effect of radiation is proportional to dose, even for minutely small doses. (05 Mar 2000) |
| swallowing threshold | The moment that the act of swallowing begins after the mastication of food, the critical moment of reflex action initiated by minimum stimulation, prior to the act of deglutition. (05 Mar 2000) |
| differential threshold | The smallest difference which can be discriminated between two stimuli or one which is barely above the threshold. (12 Dec 1998) |
| displacement threshold | The least distinguishable break in the contour of a line. (05 Mar 2000) |
