Investigating touch: The influence of personality and lived experience on tactile responding.

This study examines how different types of touch are received by participants. Individuals will fill out a series of questionnaires, as well as experience gentle brushing, tapping, and mild aversive (i.e., painful) conditions while reporting their subjective sensations. This allows research to better understand our response to touch.
