This can obviously be extended
to all the other applications of the power law, in which one stimulus is
evaluated as N times the magnitude of another stimulus. So Stevens was
simply repeating Fechner’s law in a disguised form. His law is the same
law. The power law is Fechner’s law.

I said
The second line should read
the response to one stimulus is evaluated as the Nth power of the
response to another stimulus
Best.
