Rehabilitation of somatoparaphrenia with misoplegia: insights from a single case-pilot study [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Neuroscience, 2021
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.

Body ownership and agency altered by an electromyographically controlled robotic arm [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2018
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 ...

Both novelty and expertise increase action observation network activity

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2013
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 ...

Tool use induces complex and flexible plasticity of human body representations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Plasticity of body representation fundamentally underpins human tool use. Recent studies have demonstrated remarkably complex plasticity of body representation in humans, showing that such plasticity: (1) occurs flexibly across multiple time-scales, and (

A 2.5-D representation of the human hand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Primary somatosensory maps in the brain represent the body as a discontinuous, fragmented set of 2-D skin regions. We nevertheless experience our body as a coherent 3-D volumetric object.

A variational problem on Stiefel manifolds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In their paper on discrete analogues of some classical systems such as the rigid body and the geodesic flow on an ellipsoid, Moser and Veselov introduced their analysis in the general context of flows on Stiefel manifolds.

Echo's body: play and representation in interactive music software [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
This paper examines Hans Georg Gadamer's theory of play (as it is presented in Truth and Method) and adapts it to the context of interactive music software. I aim to show that interactive technological environments afford play in ways which, because they

Implicit body representations and the conscious body image [PDF]

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 2012
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 ...

Specificity and Coherence of Body Representations [PDF]

open access: yesPerception, 2009
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.

Adult Attachment Representations and Body Image [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
In modern literature, the body image is interpreted as a multidimensional construct, which is considered important for both individual development and quality of life. The body image is central to the self-concept and has important consequences for mental functioning. A negative body image can result in adverse psychosocial consequences for both sexes.
