From: Why does a cooled object feel heavier? Psychophysical investigations into the Weber’s Phenomenon

Fig. 1

Mean (±SEM) data showing the expression of Weber’s Phenomenon in the control (all fibres intact) and compression (myelinated fibres blocked) conditions, with individual results also presented. a, b Represent control data for same-force (0.5 and 1 N, n = 11) combinations where Cold 1 and Cold 2 indicate whether the cooling stimulus was applied concurrently with the first or the second stimulus, c depicts the 1–1 N force combination where cooling was concurrent with the first stimulus before and after compression blockade of myelinated fibres (n = 9). Likewise, d represents the 1–1 N force combination before and after myelinated fibre blockade where cold was presented with the second stimulus (n = 9). Lines represent individual data of all participants, although some points may overlap
