Participants 【C11】______chose certain kinds of touch to convey specific emotions. They often expressed fear, for example, by holding and squeezing【C12】______no movement.

This is a sophisticated【C19】______ system that we haven’t previously known about. " He also acknowledged that their data were limited to a(n)【C20】______ of young Americans.
