Abstract
We compared study the amount of gustatory sense and changes in nasal skin temperature. Gustatory stimulation used saltiness and acidity that was four basic tastes. The amount of stimulation was changed and presented it. To determine the amount of gustatory sense, we used in nasal skin temperature as an objective index and the visual analog scale (VAS) as a subjective index. These indexes were compared and evaluated. That maximum temperature displacement, temperature drop, and VAS displacement increase with the amount of stimulation.
