Short-term (GSR orienting response) and longer-term changes in skin conductance were used to test the widely held belief that brushing enhances physiological arousal. Although the whirling brush did not make contact with the skin of control subjects, the degree of arousal produced by the incidental visual, auditory and social stimuli did not differ significantly from that produced by the actual brushing of experimental subjects.
