Psychometric evaluation of diazo reproductions

Author

John A. Kosta

Abstract

An experiment was conducted to determine quality criteria for continuous-tone diazo film reproductions. The rank-order method was used to acquire judgement data from a group of experienced photographic scientists evaluating diazo reproductions varying in exposure level and tone reproduction contrast. Analysis of the data resulted in the conclusion that a high degree of agreement does exist between the judges, the quality of a diazo copy depends significantly on the exposure level and the silver positive input, and maximum density and tone reproduction contrast could be possible quality criteria for diazo reproductions.
