Fig. 6: Relationship between stimulus size and sweetness perception.

Maximum sweetness intensity as a function of initial stimulus size Apattern * Cthaumatin. Every data point represents the averaged maximum sweetness intensity of a sample, with error bars representing the s.d. The asterisk next to some labels appears for samples that were tested during sensory training only. The line represents the linear fit of the data array and the gray-shaded area shows the 95% confidence interval.
