Abstract
When thermal stimulation is applied to one place and tactile stimulation is presented to the other place on the skin, we also perceive thermal sensation on the latter place. This illusion, known as Thermal Referral (TR), was well studied in fingers and forearm. However its characteristics in other parts of the body was seldom reported. We conducted an experiment to verify the difference in TR occurrence rate in four places along from the chest region to the right hand. The result indicated that TR occurrence rates when the stilumi were over the wrist or the median line were very low.
