Migraine understood as a sensory threshold disease
Pain, 2019AbstractMigraine encompasses a broader spectrum of sensory symptoms than just headache. These “other” symptoms, eg, sensory phobias, cognitive and mood changes, allodynia, and many others indicate an altered sensitivity to sensory input which can be measured, in principle, by quantifying sensory threshold changes longitudinally over time.

EXTRAVERSION AND SENSORY THRESHOLD
Psychophysiology, 1968ABSTRACTIt was predicted that Introverts would have lower auditory thresholds than Extraverts, in line with other physiological differences between these groups. Using an ear‐choice technique and controlling the factor of guessing, the prediction was verified, using non‐patients who score at the two ends of the Eysenck Personality Inventory.

Measurement of Sensory Thresholds
1999One of the earliest characteristics of human sensory function to be measured was the absolute threshold. The absolute or detection threshold was seen as an energy level below which no sensation would be produced by a stimulus and above which a sensation would reach consciousness. The concept of threshold was central to Fechner’s psychophysics.

Sensory Threshold and Conductance Testing in Nerve Injuries
Journal of Hand Surgery, 1986Two electrical methods of assessing nerve function have been developed and have proved useful in clinical practice. Their role has been established in the diagnosis of injury, prognosis and the assessment of progress following repair. They provide an easily performed, objective measurement of nerve function.

SENSORY THRESHOLDS: CONCEPTS AND METHODS
Journal of Sensory Studies, 1998A sensory threshold can be defined generally as a stimulus intensity that produces a response in half of the trials. The definition of the population threshold is discussed. Five main classical statistical procedures for estimating thresholds are reviewed.

Variability of sensory threshold determination in clinical use
Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 1981The variability of perception threshold determination for vibration, tactile stimuli and thermal stimuli, with instruments intended for clinical use, was studied in 13 healthy subjects and 27 patients with chronic polyneuropathy. Normal thresholds for tactile and thermal stimuli were determined in 51 healthy subjects.

Pet peeves about others’ behaviors are normal. When a particular behavior occurs daily in a classroom, however, it can drive a teacher (and students) to severe annoyance. The key to minimizing issues is remembering that our frenzy over someone’s quirky behavior is more often our problem than theirs.

Viewing touch improves tactile sensory threshold
NeuroReport, 2005Previous research on multisensory integration has demonstrated that viewing the stimulated body part enhances discrimination ability. Participants in this experiment watched a video showing a hand being touched by a stick and a second video showing the stick touching the space beneath the hand.

Cross-modal Induction of Changes in Sensory Thresholds
Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 1968Two experiments are reported in which subliminal stimulation of one modality with emotional material impairs detection performance in a different modality. In the first experiment the visual awareness threshold for neutral material was raised by simultaneous auditory presentation of emotional words.

Sensory Thresholds and Response Bias
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1963Sensory differential thresholds are studied by two models: a discrete model, the neural quantum theory, and a continuous model, signal detectability theory. A comprehensive series of auditory experiments is reported that was designed to obtain measures of both the detection and decision processes of the observers when the signal consists of a brief ...
