Food resource constraints may limit the number of eggs parents let hatch, or the remaining eggs may not provide enough visual or tactile stimulation to elicit incubation behavior.

The abstract says " Neural impulses in response to tactile stimulation of the shell were recorded from afferent nerve fibres in tortoises ( T . graeca and T . hermanni ).

These include the five classic senses of vision ( sight ), audition ( hearing ), tactile stimulation ( touch ), olfaction ( smell ), and gustation ( taste ).

"In the rat, the key input is tactile, so it's very tempting to say tactile stimulation could do the same for humans, but we don't know that ."

Researchers propose that swarming behaviour is a response to overcrowding and studies have shown that increased tactile stimulation of the hind legs or, in some species, simply encountering other individuals causes an increase in levels of serotonin.

The study found that autistic children who receive olfactory and tactile stimulation along with exercises that stimulated other paried sensory modalities clinically improved by 42 percent while autistic children not receiving this treatment clinically improved by just 7 percent.

The misconception is derived from the fact that a small number of infants seem to be slow to take their first air breaths, and it is difficult for the attendant adults to restrain themselves from administering some form of tactile stimulation.

Some vocalizations of domestic cats, such as purring, are well-known to be produced in situations of positive valence, such as mother kitten interactions, contacts with familiar partner, or during tactile stimulation with inanimate objects as when rolling and rubbing.

If we had a real machine and a person and we didn't get the subjects laughing or smiling, you would never know if it was because the tactile stimulation was different or if it was because their perception of who was doing it differed ."

They found that tactile stimulation of the fingers lead to activation of the auditory belt area, which suggests that there is a relationship between audition and tactition . which aims at delivering a normal hearing range of nine octaves via 216 electrodes to sequential touch nerve zones, next to the spine.
