    Skin wetness detection thresholds and wetness magnitude estimations of the human index fingerpad and their modulation by moisture temperature

    Humans often experience wet stimuli using their hands, yet we know little on how sensitive our fingers are to wetness and the mechanisms underlying this sensory function. We therefore aimed to quantify the minimum amount of water required to detect wetness on the human index fingerpad, the wetness detection threshold, and assess its modulation by temperature. Eight blinded participants (24.0 ± 5.2 y; 23.3 ± 3.5 BMI) used their index fingerpad to statically touch stimuli varying in volume (0, 10, 20, 30, 40 or 50 ml) and temperature (25, 29, 33 or 37 °C). During and post contact, participants rated wetness and thermal sensations using a modified yes/no task and a visual analogue scale. The wetness detection threshold at a moisture temperature akin to human skin (33 °C) was 24.7 ± 3.2ml. This threshold shifted depending on moisture temperature (P = 0.002), with cooler temperatures reducing (18.7 ± 3.9ml at 29 °C) and warmer temperatures increasing (27.0 ± 3.0ml at 37 °C) thresholds. When normalised over contact area, the wetness detection threshold at 33 °C corresponded to 1.926x10-4 ml mm-2 (95% CI: 1.873x10-4, 1.979x10-4 ml mm-2). Threshold differences were reflected by magnitude estimation data, which were analysed using linear regression to show that both volume and moisture temperature can predict magnitude estimations of wetness (P &lt; 0.001). Our results indicate high sensitivity to wetness in the human index fingerpad, which can be modulated by moisture temperature. These findings are relevant for the design of products with wetness management properties.</p

    On Nietzsche’s genealogical mode of inquiry

    No full text
    The subject of this thesis is Friedrich Nietzsche’s methodology, the genealogical mode of inquiry, which came to fruition in On the Genealogy of Morals. The precise nature of the genealogy, as a mode of inquiry, is a site of contest amongst scholars, with the central debates pivoting around four questions which arise upon considering the methodology: (1) what is the critical import of Nietzsche’s genealogical mode of inquiry? (2) What form of critique does it take? (3) To whom does Nietzsche address his reflections? And (4) what role, if any, does history play in Nietzsche’s genealogical narratives? Accordingly, this thesis seeks to offer and to defend answers to the central questions that are generated by the consideration of Nietzsche’s methodology.In order to get a foothold into these debates and to provide the boundary within which these disagreements occur the first chapter has as its object of inquiry an examination and evaluation of Nietzsche scholars’ responses to these issues. In chapter two I defend my interpretation against these rival views, and contend that the genealogy takes the form of an immanent critique, and that it is intended, at least, to reach all of Nietzsche’s contemporaries.The adage “genealogy is history correctly practiced” is treated in the remaining three chapters, in which I attempt to morph what appears to be at present an uninformative formulation into an informative one by arguing that for Nietzsche historiography is best seen as a form of artistry. And, this I submit, serves to shed light upon the genealogical mode of inquiry, and to shape the boundary by which the equation of genealogy as methodology with history becomes instructive

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
