Log-mean intensity ratings are shown for thermal (a,b) and nociceptive (c,d) sensations reported on the hand (triangles) versus the forearm (circles) as a function of thermode temperature. All data are from the static contact condition. Letters on the right y-axis represent verbal descriptors on the rating scale: BD = barely detectable (highlighted with dashed line), W = weak, M = moderate, S = strong, VS = very strong. Vertical bars represent standard errors of the mean (SEM).
