Materials and methodsReaction time was evaluated to measure the latency of lever press to visual cue during exposure to green odor or vehicle. In the measurements of simple reaction time, 20 pictures were randomly presented to the subjects who were asked to press the lever as soon as possible after the presentation of the visual cue. Selective reaction time was evaluated to measure the latency of lever press to two categories of pictures, 20 male pictures for one side, and 20 female ones for the other side. The threshold of mechanical pain was measued using a plastic cone which was gradually lowered onto the center area of the second finger. The score when subjects started to feel uncomfortable or pain was used as the pain threshold.
