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.

The role of expectation in multisensory body representation – neural evidence [PDF]
Sensory events contribute to body ownership, the feeling that the body belongs to me. However, the encoding of sensory events is not only reactive, but also proactive in that our brain generates prediction about forthcoming stimuli.

Referral of touch and ownership between the hands and the role of the somatosensory cortices.
Recent studies have shown that the feeling of body ownership can be fooled by simple visuo-tactile manipulations. Perceptual illusions have been reported in which participants sense phantom touch seen on a rubber hand (rubber hand illusion).

Rubber hands feel touch, but not in blind individuals. [PDF]
Psychology and neuroscience have a long-standing tradition of studying blind individuals to investigate how visual experience shapes perception of the external world.

Visual enhancement of touch and the bodily self [PDF]
We experience our own body through both touch and vision. We further see that others’ bodies are similar to our own body, but we have no direct experience of touch on others’ bodies.

Rubber Hand Illusion: Evidence for a multisensory integration of proprioception
The present review aims to describe the consolidation of a multisensory integration hypothesis for proprioception through the description of different Rubber Hand Illusion (RHI) experimental settings.

'Robot' Hand Illusion under Delayed Visual Feedback: Relationship between the Senses of Ownership and Agency. [PDF]
The rubber hand illusion (RHI) is an illusion of the self-ownership of a rubber hand that is touched synchronously with one's own hand. While the RHI relates to visual and tactile integration, we can also consider a similar illusion with visual and motor

The infuence of skin colour on the experience of ownership in the rubber hand illusion [PDF]
Racial prejudice is associated with a fundamental distinction between "us" and "them"-a distinction linked to the perceived overlap between representations of the self and others.

Subjective embodiment during the rubber hand illusion predicts severity of premonitory sensations and tics in Tourette Syndrome [PDF]
In Tourette Syndrome, the expression of tics and commonly preceding premonitory sensations is associated with perturbed subjective feelings of self-control and agency. We compared responses to the Rubber Hand Illusion in 23 adults with TS and 22 controls.

Quantifying body ownership information processing and perceptual bias in the rubber hand illusion.
Bodily illusions have fascinated humankind for centuries, and researchers have studied them to learn about the perceptual and neural processes that underpin multisensory channels of bodily awareness.
