Out of all the human senses, touch is the one that is most often unappreciated, and
undervalued. Yet, the surface of the human body, the skin, is actually one huge sheet of …

It is thought that perception of effort during physical tasks is the conscious awareness of the

Ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) and effort are considered extremely important in the
regulation of intensity during self-paced physical activity. While effort and exertion are …

It is commonly assumed that we are conscious of our movements mainly because we can
