[Energy relationships in the human cutaneous system under conditions of single, residual and reverse masking].

Studies were carried out by electron-mechanic adequatometer permitting to obtain two shifted in time air stimuli. According to the curves of pressure duration thershold energies were determined theoretically for the stimuli of various durations; energy-duration curves were plotted. The adequatometric analysis of the curves made it possible to determine: 1. qualitative and quantitative similarity of energetic regularities of simultaneous residual and reverse masking; 2. the masking interval value during the residual masking; 3 critical time of discovering the threshold stimulus during the reverse masking.
