Research on Evaluation Method of Contiguous Sense of Linen Fabrics

(1) Objective: To test the feasibility of the proposed method that evaluates the contiguous sense of linen fabrics by using experimental paradigm of behavioral experiment. (2) Methods: The experimental program is written with E-Prime 2.0, while the expression of the experimental stimulus material is realized with the self-made contiguous sense measurement device, which output the senses of itch, roughness and smoothness among the fabric contiguous sense. (3) Results: The evaluation values of the senses of urtication, roughness and smoothness differs significant, and can distinguish the intensity of the contiguous senses of 8 fabrics fully. There is no obvious difference among the evaluation methods of contiguous senses of those fabrics by using measurement device or manual measurement. (4) Conclusion: The self-made contiguous sense measurement device combined with the introduction of behavioral experimental paradigm is feasible, presenting the contiguous sense of linen fabrics effectively.
