Chowdhury, Sheremeta, and Turocy (2014) suggest that overspreading may be due to the participants implementing quantal response strategies (McKelvey and Palfrey 1995).

The distribution has received wide applicability in nuclear reactor safety, competing risks, reliability, and quantal response contexts.

Endpoints that are generally measured as quantal response rates in a study population require some additional discussion.
A unified probabilistic framework for dose-response assessment of human health effects
A quantal response model (probit analysis) was used to calculate C [sub]05 , C [sub]50 and C [sub]95 (concentrations associated with 5%, 50% and 95% probabilities, respectively) at each end-point based on predicted blood and effect-site concentrations of the two drugs.
Comparison of C[sub]50 for Propofol-remifentanil Target-controlled Infusion and Bispectral Index at Loss of Consciousness and Response to Painful Stimulus in Elderly and Young Patients
This can be done using the quantal response framework of McKelvey and Palfrey (1995).
Behavioral operations management: a blind spot and a research program
Within this behavioral framework, quantal response equilibrium has emerged as a promising approach to model human bounded rationality (Camerer 2003; McKelvey and Palfrey 1995; Wright and Leyton-Brown 2010) including recent results illustrating the benefits of the quantal response (QR) model in security games contexts (Yang et al.

Chapter 2 is an overview of quantal response bioassays, which are bioassays that estimate the relationships between varied quantity or intensity of stimuli and responses to them.

Economic science: an experimental approach for teaching and research. (2002 Presidential Address)
Our interpretation of secretion--which is consistent with the structural organization of the neuromuscular junction reported by McMahan and co-workers (1)--is based upon the porocytosis hypothesis (2, 3), in which the postsynaptic quantal response results from presynaptic neurotransmitter secretion from many docked vesicles, rather than from a single vesicular exocytotic event (cf.

In the case of no deliberation, we simultaneously account for the individual and group data using quantal response equilibrium.
