The current study used an online questionnaire,  completed by 130 people who self-reported experiencing ASMR. We aimed to extend  preliminary investigations into the experience, and establish key multisensory  factors contributing to the successful induction of ASMR through online media.  Aspects such as timing and trigger load, atmosphere, and characteristics of ASMR  content, ideal spatial distance from various types of stimuli, visual  characteristics, context and use of ASMR triggers, and audio preferences are  explored. Lower-pitched, complex sounds were found to be especially effective  triggers, as were slow-paced, detail-focused videos. Conversely, background music  inhibited the sensation for many respondents. These results will help in designing  media for ASMR induction.},
