“…Thus, although the generation of TGI percepts is conserved across a variety of spatial configurations, the difference between the cold and warm components does exert a large influence on the perceived thermo-nociceptive quality and intensity of the illusion. TGI phenomena have been investigated using qualitative reports -for example by requiring participants to select from a variety of descriptors relating to the subjective qualities of temperature and pain (e.g., Li et al 2009;Bach et al 2011) -as well as quantitative approaches, such as verbal numerical scales (Scheuren et al, 2014), visual analogue scales (Adam et al, 2014;Craig and Bushnell, 1994;Kern et al, 2008aKern et al, , 2008bLeung et al, 2005) or temperature matching (Fardo et al, 2018;Ferrè et al, 2018;Kammers et al, 2010;Leung et al, 2005;Marotta et al, 2015). From this variety of qualitative and quantitative measures, it emerged that TGI sensations vary from innocuous to painful heat percepts, and can be felt as an intermediate sensation between innocuous and noxious perception (Bach et al, 2011).…”
