The participants were given a list of 13 natural descriptors and 5 paresthetic descriptors to describe the quality of the sensation. The top panel shows the frequency of each descriptor for the two evoked sensations for each participant shown in Fig. 2a. For all reported sensations, we stimulated via each electrode with a 1-sec long pulse train. The bottom panel shows the total number of descriptors used to describe the sensations each week.
