Tactile detection threshold determined with single sinusoidal mechanical pulses in the monkey skin.
Tactile detection thresholds for single sinusoidal mechanical pulses increased with decreases in the frequency of the stimulus pulse (from 150 to 20 Hz) in a monkey's skin. The results correspond with those of similar electrophysiological studies.
