Which phenomenon does the following example illustrate?

When you begin your first year of college, the tuition is $12,000. At the beginning of your second year of college the tuition has been raised by $200, but you do not notice. However, upon returning for your third year of college, you do notice that the college has raised tuition by $2, 000.

I am not sure with this one. Thank you!

For the record, it was Weber's Law :)

Would the answer be Weber's Law?

Right!

The phenomenon illustrated by the given example is called "Weber's Law." Weber's Law is a principle in psychology that states that the perceived difference between two stimuli is proportional to the magnitude of the original stimulus.

In this example, the college tuition acts as a stimulus, and the magnitude of the increase in tuition each year affects your perception of the change. In the first year, the tuition increases by $200, which is a small proportion of the initial $12,000 tuition. Since the increase is relatively small, you do not notice it. However, in the third year, when the tuition increases by $2,000, this change is a larger proportion of the initial tuition, making it more noticeable to you.

To arrive at the answer, it is important to understand the concept of Weber's Law and how it relates to the given scenario.
