THIS PAPER is one of a series on sensation and its measurement. In recent years some progress has been made in analyzing the phenomenon of vibratory sensitivity (pallesthesia) by the use of the pallesthesiometer, an instrument more accurate than the tuning fork, and one which enables the clinician to obtain quantitative and qualitative data.

This paper is part of an ongoing study of performances that make a physical and psychological connection with the public by synthesising various media such as sound, image, smoke, smell, etc. The research project focuses on the history of the live image and tries to connect this to current practices in popular culture and art, for example live video ...

Physiology, 2013
The hairs of the skin not only function to prevent heat loss but also have important sensory functions. Recent work has now established that each hair of the skin is innervated by one or more of three types of mechanoreceptor ending. Each of these three mechanoreceptor types possesses distinct molecular features and detects distinctive information ...

We have studied the appreciation of heaviness in two groups of subjects; in 8 patients with varying degrees of unilateral 'upper motor neuron' weakness but without sensory symptoms or signs, and in 10 volunteers during partial curarization of the forearm and hand. In all experiments the subjects matched a reference weight lifted on the weak side with a

Awareness of sensations and of the location of sensations
Analysis, 1966G N. A. VESEY formulates, in a series of five steps, what he takes . to be the fundamental argument of the Local Sign theory regarding sensations.' He accepts the premises but rejects the final conclusion of the argument as an invalid inference. The point of the exercise is to sort out the common ground between the Local Sign theory and his own ...

Lab Animal, 2008 When animals are used in a biomedical research activity that may result in more than mild or momentary pain or distress, humanity, federal regulations and common sense direct us to use the least sentient species that can fulfill the aims of the research.

SENSATIONAL GHOSTS, GHOSTLY SENSATIONS
Women's Writing, 2013This essay examines the dialogue between sensation fiction and the ghost story from the late 1850s to the early 1870s, with specific reference to the work of Ellen Wood, Amelia Edwards and Rhoda Broughton. It investigates why these literary forms may have been of particular interest to women writers, and, through close reading of representative ...

Emily Dickinson declared: 'After great pain, a formal feeling comes'. This formal feeling begins when sensory neurons are activated by noxious stimuli, such as stepping on a tack. Recently, Seymour Benzer's group identified sensory neurons in Drosophila larvae that mediate aversive responses to noxious heat and mechanical stimuli.
