Gustav Theodor Fechner (; 19 April 1801 – 18 November 1887) was a German experimental psychologist, philosopher, and physicist. An early pioneer in experimental psychology and founder of psychophysics, he inspired many 20th-century scientists and philosophers. He is also credited with demonstrating the non-linear relationship between psychological sensation and the physical intensity of a stimulus via the formula:
S
=
K
ln
I
{\displaystyle S=K\ln I}
, which became known as the Weber–Fechner law.
