Somatosensation01:33

Somatosensation

43.8K
The somatosensory system relays sensory information from the skin, mucous membranes, limbs, and joints. Somatosensation is more familiarly known as the sense of touch. A typical somatosensory pathway includes three types of long neurons: primary, secondary, and tertiary. Primary neurons have cell bodies located near the spinal cord in groups of neurons called dorsal root ganglia. The sensory neurons of ganglia innervate designated areas of skin called dermatomes.

Tactile and Chemical Senses01:27

Tactile and Chemical Senses

959
Tactile senses encompass touch, temperature, and pain, each mediated by specific receptors. Touch receptors detect mechanical energy or pressure against the skin. Sensory fibers from these receptors enter the spinal cord and relay information to the brain stem. Here, most fibers cross over to the opposite side of the brain. The touch information then moves to the thalamus, which projects a map of the body's surface onto the somatosensory areas of the parietal lobes in the cerebral cortex.

Techniques of therapeutic communication I: Active Listening, Sharing Observations, Validation, and Using Touch

8.2K
The history of therapeutic communication can be traced back to Florence Nightingale, who emphasized the importance of developing trusting relationships with patients. She taught that the presence of nurses with patients results in therapeutic healing.
Therapeutic communication is not the same as social interaction. Social interaction has no goal or purpose and consists of casual information sharing, whereas therapeutic communication has a plan or purpose for the conversation. Therapeutic...

Design Example: Resistive Touchscreen

796
A device engineer plays a crucial role in designing user interfaces for mobile devices. One such interface is the resistive touchscreen, which fundamentally consists of two metallic layers: a flexible upper layer and a rigid lower layer, separated by a narrow gap. The high resistance between these two layers is a key characteristic of this design.
When a user touches the screen, the two layers make contact at a specific point known as the touchpoint. This contact reduces the resistance between...

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Psychology
  • Sensory Perception

Background:

  • The rubber hand paradigm is a well-established method for studying body ownership and sensory integration.
  • Understanding how the brain combines visual and tactile information is crucial for explaining multisensory perception.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the integration of vision and touch using a modified rubber hand paradigm.
  • To explore the role of predictive signals in creating a tactile illusion through an intervening barrier.

Main Methods:

  • A novel variation of the rubber hand paradigm was employed.
  • Participants experienced the illusion of feeling touch through a glass barrier.

Main Results:

  • A striking illusion of feeling touch through glass was successfully induced.
  • The findings suggest the brain utilizes predictive mechanisms to integrate visual and tactile input.

Conclusions:

  • The modified rubber hand paradigm effectively demonstrates multisensory integration.
  • Predictive processing plays a significant role in the perception of touch, even across physical barriers.
