Mainly the skin senses touch and warmth have been investigated. It is shown that the decision model describes the experimental data better than the threshold model. The experiments lead to the assumption that an internal noise exists, which is a neural activity being undistinguishable from the neural activity caused by small stimuli and which adds to the neural activity caused by the stimulus. The probability distribution of this internal noise can be considered to be gaussian. The relation between stimulus and neural activity is alinear for the touch sense. The question of whether noise of a multiplicative nature must be assumed is discussed.
