The slime hand illusion: Nonproprioceptive ownership distortion specific to the skin region

i-Perception, 2022
The “slime hand illusion” is a simple and robust technique that uses mirror-visual feedback to produce a nonproprioceptive ownership distortion. The illusion can be easily evoked by the participant watching the experimenter pinching and pulling a chunk ...

Neural dynamics of causal inference in the macaque frontoparietal circuit

eLife, 2022
Natural perception relies inherently on inferring causal structure in the environment. However, the neural mechanisms and functional circuits essential for representing and updating the hidden causal structure and corresponding sensory representations ...

The effects of subliminal or supraliminal sadness induction on the sense of body ownership and the role of dissociative symptoms

Scientific Reports, 2021
Previous research has shown that emotions can alter our sense of ownership. Whether this relationship is modulated by differences in emotion experience and awareness, however, remains unclear.

Feeling of hand deformation as a monkey's hand: an experiment on a visual body with discomfort and its algebraic analysis

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
While there are many studies in which body ownership can be transferred to a virtual body, there are few experimental studies of how subjects feel about their own bodies being deformed since a real body cannot be deformed.

Action-Induced Rubber Hand Illusion

i-Perception, 2011
In the rubber hand illusion (RHI), when a rubber hand is observed while the real hand is occluded from view, and the two are stroked synchronously, several illusions can be induced: proprioceptive drift toward the rubber hand, sensation of touch on the ...

Mechanical Pain Thresholds and the Rubber Hand Illusion

Frontiers in Psychology, 2018
We manipulated the sense of body ownership with the rubber hand illusion (RHI) to determine if perception of a potentially painful threat to the rubber hand can modify the mechanical pain threshold (MPT). Simultaneous tactile stimulation of the subject’s

Combined induction of rubber-hand illusion and out-of-body experiences

Frontiers in Psychology, 2012
The emergence of self-consciousness depends on several processes: those of body ownership, attributing self-identity to the body, and those of self-location, localizing our sense of self.

Virtual hand illusion induced by visuomotor correlations.

PLoS ONE, 2010
BackgroundOur body schema gives the subjective impression of being highly stable. However, a number of easily-evoked illusions illustrate its remarkable malleability.

A methodological study of virtual self-touch: effects on perception and motor control strategies

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
IntroductionAdvances in virtual reality technology have facilitated research that leverages the plasticity of body schema. This study investigates whether the use of an avatar habituation method, in which participants voluntarily touch an avatar as a ...

Is body dysmorphic disorder associated with abnormal bodily self-awareness? A study using the rubber hand illusion.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Evidence from past research suggests that behaviours and characteristics related to body dissatisfaction may be associated with greater instability of perceptual body image, possibly due to problems in the integration of body-related multisensory ...
