How does touch affect social interactions? Through short games and reflection sessions, participants gain firsthand experience of how social touch is perceived and processed.

How does touch influence social interactions—and what happens on a physical and subjective level? This workshop allows participants to directly experience key principles of touch research. After receiving an explanation and giving their consent, participants can take part in short interactive games; they are filmed during these activities and then reflect on their own experiences. These experiences are discussed as a group and contextualized within the framework of scientific findings.
