Multisensory effects between genders. To diminish the effect of timing, the delta values between test with stimuli and corresponding baseline, defined as “changes” in the figure was used. Multisensory conditioning stimulus led to a strengthened effect compared with single conditioning stimuli for several outcome parameters, i.e. subjective ratings to gustatory stimulus (A), negative affective scores (C) and warmth detection threshold (G). CDT = cold detection threshold, WDT = warmth detection threshold, CPT = cold pain threshold, HPT = heat pain threshold. Positive affective changes (B), heat rate changes (D), skin temperature changes (E), cold detection threshold changes (F), cold pain threshold changes (H), and heat pain threshold changes (I) in different tests were also presented. **= P <0.01, *= P <0.05.
