A summary of responses is below. Regards, Ani Patel ---------------------------------------------------------------------------= ----------------------------------------------------- Original query (Oct 23, 2014), from Aniruddh Patel (a.patel@xxxxxxxx<mailt= o:a.patel@xxxxxxxx>) -------------------------- Can anyone point me to papers which quantify the JND for frequency of silen= t vibrotactile stimulation? Ideally the data would show JND as a functio= n of frequency over a range of tactile stimulation frequencies. Responses: >From Sebastian Merchel sebastian.merchel@xxxxxxxx<mailto:sebastian.mer= chel@xxxxxxxx> ------------------------------------------ You can find a review of tactile JNDFs at various body sites (e.g., finger,= forearm, whole body) in the following paper: Merchel, S., Altinsoy, M.E. & Stamm, M. (2011). Just Noticeable Frequency D= ifferences for Whole-Body Vibrations, in Proceedings of Internoise 2011, Os= aka, Japan. (http://www.sebastianmerchel.de/Publications/2011/Merchel_JNDF_WBV_Internoi= se2011.pdf) I just uploaded my PhD here: http://www.sebastianmerchel.de/publications.ht= ml (first publication from top). It contains a chapter with an extensive co= mparison between the auditory and tactile modality. >From Charlotte Reed cmreed@xxxxxxxx<mailto:cmreed@xxxxxxxx> -----------------= ------------------------------------------- Attached is a pdf that contains a relevant plot on this topic, taken from [= page 3 and 4 of a] chapter in a book called "Tactile Aids for the Hearing I= mpaired." Edited by I. R. Summers, Whurr Publishers, London, 1992. The ch= apter was written by R. T. Verrillo and G. A. Gescheider and is Chapter 1, = Perception via the sense of touch. The most relevant article to your inquiry is that of Goff (1967) for sinewa= ve stimulation presented to the finger. That reference is Goff (1967).
