Function: stack more papers and let subject feel it to locate hair until it can no longer locate hair
- sensitive to pressure of great # of touch receptors
124
Tactile discrimination in various skin locations (skin exercise)
Tests your sensitivity
- due to differences in density of touch receptors in diff areas of body
- ruler band thing on head measure density
- more dense in finger tip and lips
125
Relative temperature sense (skin exercise)
- desynthesizing nerve
- cold water perceive room temp of hot vs vice versa
126
Adaptation to pressure skin exercise
Touch receptors becoming less sensitive to an object you are aware of for a long time
- due to adaptation of receptor cells
- coin concept (the more it stays in hand the less u become sensitive to it)
127
Liquid crystal thermography skin exercise
- measure different temp of diff region of body
- certain areas are hotter than others
Thermography- measures amount of heat emitted by an area of body
-transform temp into visible signals
Changes in temp modify shape of liquid crystal which modifies wavelengths of light reflected
