Specificity and Coherence of Body Representations [PDF]
Bodily illusions differently affect body representations underlying perception and action. We investigated whether this task dependence reflects two distinct dimensions of embodiment: the sense of agency and the sense of the body as a coherent whole. In experiment 1 the sense of agency was manipulated by comparing active versus passive movements during

Mirror exposure following visual body-size adaptation does not affect own body image
Prolonged visual exposure to large bodies produces a thinning aftereffect on subsequently seen bodies, and vice versa. This visual adaptation effect could contribute to the link between media exposure and body shape misperception.

Rehabilitation of somatoparaphrenia with misoplegia: insights from a single case-pilot study [PDF]
Somatoparaphrenia lacka ownership of a paralyzed limb, i.e., the illusion that one’s limbs belong to someone else. Somatoparaphrenia is one of the many forms of body misperceptions.

Multimodal Contributions to Body Representation [PDF]
Our body is a unique entity by which we interact with the external world. Consequently, the way we represent our body has profound implications in the way we process and locate sensations and in turn perform appropriate actions. The body can be the subject, but also the object of our experience, providing information from sensations on the body surface

Body ownership and agency altered by an electromyographically controlled robotic arm [PDF]
Understanding how we consciously experience our bodies is a fundamental issue in cognitive neuroscience. Two fundamental components of this are the sense of body ownership (the experience of the body as one's own) and the sense of agency (the feeling of ...

Body Representations in Children with Cerebral Palsy [PDF]
We constantly process top-down and bottom-up inputs concerning our own body that interact to form body representations (BR). Even if some evidence showed BR deficits in children with cerebral palsy, a systematic study that evaluates different kinds of BR in these children, taking into account the possible presence of a general deficit affecting non ...

Both novelty and expertise increase action observation network activity
Our experiences with others affect how we perceive their actions. In particular, activity in bilateral premotor and parietal cortices during action observation, collectively known as the action observation network (AON), is modulated by one’s expertise ...

Implicit body representations and the conscious body image [PDF]
Recent studies have revealed that somatosensory processing relies on a class of implicit body representations showing large distortions of size and shape. The relation between these representations and the conscious body image remains unclear. Dissociations have been reported in the clinical literature on eating disorders between different body image ...
