The study of 22 couples placed participants in EEG caps to measure brainwave activity, and took measurements while the couples were in separate rooms, in the same room but not touching, and holding hands. By subjecting the female to mild heat pain, researchers were able to identify that physical touch significantly reduced the pain felt by the women.
