Correction to: Scientific Reports https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-023-44895-w, published online 20 October 2023
The original version of this Article contained an error in Figure 5, panel d, where the values were swapped round. The original Figure 5 and accompanying legend appear below.
Pleasantness ratings over different velocities for the younger and older groups and electrodermal activity over the stroking conditions. Participants’ arms were stroked at different velocities before and after cream application. (a) Pleasantness ratings (range − 10 unpleasant to + 10 pleasant) for the younger (n = 22, filled gray circles, with the means connected as a continuous line) and older (n = 19, filled black triangles, with the means connected as a dotted line) groups over each stroking velocity (presented as a categorical log10 scale), showing a significant effect of age group and velocity. The lines showing the means also show the upper and lower 95% confidence intervals of the mean. During the stroking, electrodermal activity (EDA) was measured and significant differences were found for (b) stroking velocity, (c) age group, and (d) before and after cream application. As the data were highly skewed, medians are shown with 95% confidence intervals of the median, and each sub-figure y-axis is presented on a log2 scale, for better visualization of the data.
The original Article has been corrected.
