What will be an ideal response


Haptics is the study of touch. Studies show that human contact is vital to our personal development, well-being, and physical health. A touch ethic is what each individual considers appropriate touching. Some people are more comfortable with public displays of affection while others are not. The amount of touch we need, initiate, tolerate, and receive also depends on our cultural background.
