Factors influencing capacity to judge direction of tactile stimulus movement on the face

D. A. Dreyer, G. H. Duncan, C. L. Wong and B. L. Whitsel

The influence of stimulus velocity and traverse length on a subject's ability to indicate direction of brush movement across perioral skin was determined using a forced-choice procedure. The data show that correct identification of brush direction increases with traverse length and is optimal for velocities between 3 and 25 cm/sec.
