The Influence of Body Processing in the Development of Empathy in Early Adolescence: A Preliminary Study

open access: yesBiology and Life Sciences Forum, 2022
Mental representations in various bodily formats (e.g., somatosensory, interoceptive, motoric) have been suggested to play a pivotal role in social cognition. However, data on children and adolescents are lacking.

Shared representations in body perception

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 2006
The ability to understand events that happen to other people is a characteristic feature of the human mind. Here, we investigate whether the links between mental representation of one's own body and the bodies of other people could form the basis of human social representations.

Mind the Gap: The Effects of Temporal and Spatial Separation in Localization of Dual Touches on the Hand

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2018
In this study, we aimed to relate the findings from two predominantly separate streams of literature, one reporting on the localization of single touches on the skin, and the other on the distance perception of dual touches.

Tool use imagery triggers tool incorporation in the body schema

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2014
Tool-use has been shown to modify the way the brain represents the metrical characteristics of the effector controlling the tool. For example, the use of tools that elongate the physical length of the arm induces kinematic changes affecting selectively ...

Loss of action-related function and connectivity in the blind extrastriate body area

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
The Extrastriate Body Area (EBA) participates in the visual perception and motor actions of body parts. We recently showed that EBA’s perceptual function develops independently of visual experience, responding to stimuli with body-part information in a ...

Implicit and Explicit Body Representations [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Psychologist, 2015
Several forms of perception require that sensory information be referenced to representations of the size and shape of the body. This requirement is especially acute in somatosensation in which the main receptor surface (i.e., the skin) is itself coextensive with the body.

Are Fertility Preservation Procedures Before Gonadotoxic Therapy and Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Feasible and Safe in Very Young Children? A Retrospective Cohort Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Fertility preservation (FP) is increasingly integrated into the care of pediatric patients exposed to gonadotoxic therapy or conditioning for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), yet perioperative data in infants and toddlers remain scarce.

Is this my hand? Body-ownership and the rubber hand illusion

open access: yesJournal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2015
We perceive that our body belongs to us and is a coherent and unified entity. Therefore, body-ownership is fundamental to self-consciousness. To explore body-ownership in normal subjects, researchers have intensively used a bodily illusion known as the ...

Change of Body Representation in Symmetric Body Parts.

open access: yes, 2021
Many researchers have demonstrated the change of body representation, including the rubber hand illusion and pinocchio illusion. However, they focused on the change of a single body part. The human body has a symmetric structure; therefore, the modification of body representation can be facilitated by the corresponding movement of symmetric parts.

Feasibility and Safety of Somato‐Cognitive Coordination Therapy for Cerebellar Ataxia Following Pediatric Brain Tumor Treatment

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cerebellar ataxia after pediatric brain tumor treatment can cause persistent gait, balance, and speech impairment, yet no established rehabilitation strategy exists. Somato‐cognitive coordination therapy (SCCT) is a virtual reality–guided intervention designed to promote sensorimotor integration through visually constrained reaching
