The embodiment of objects: Review, analysis, and future directions
A Schettler, V Raja, ML Anderson - Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2019 - frontiersin.org
Here we offer a thorough review of the empirical literature on the conditions under which an
object, such as a tool or a prosthetic (whether real or virtual), can be experienced as being in …

The role of sensorimotor processes in pain empathy
I Riečanský, C Lamm - Brain topography, 2019 - Springer
Pain is a salient, aversive sensation which motivates avoidance, but also has a strong social
signaling function. Numerous studies have shown that regions of the nervous system active …

Influence of cognitive stance and physical perspective on subjective and autonomic reactivity to observed pain and pleasure: An immersive virtual reality study
Observing others' pain may induce a reaction called personal distress that may be
influenced by top-down (imagine self or other in pain, ie, self-vs other-oriented stance) and …

Diametrical modulation of tactile and visual perceptual thresholds during the rubber hand illusion: a predictive coding account
During the rubber hand illusion (RHI), the synchronous stroking of the participants'
concealed hand and a visible rubber hand induces a conflict among visuo-tactile inputs …

Increasing self-other bodily overlap increases sensorimotor resonance to others' pain
Empathy for another person's pain and feeling pain oneself seem to be accompanied by
similar or shared neural responses. Such shared responses could be achieved by mapping …

Losing my hand. Body ownership attenuation after virtual lesion of the primary motor cortex
C Fossataro, V Bruno, S Giurgola… - European Journal of …, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
A fundamental component of the self‐awareness is the sensation that we are acting with our
own body. Thus, a coherent sense of self implies the existence of a tight link between the …

Empathic neural responses predict group allegiance
Watching another person in pain activates brain areas involved in the sensation of our own
pain. Importantly, this neural mirroring is not constant; rather, it is modulated by our beliefs …

Like the back of my hand: Visual ERPs reveal a specific change detection mechanism for the bodily self
The ability to identify our own body is considered a pivotal marker of self-awareness.
Previous research demonstrated that subjects are more efficient in the recognition of images …

Feeling touch on the own hand restores the capacity to visually discriminate it from someone else'hand: Pathological embodiment receding in brain-damaged patients
The sense of body ownership, ie, the belief that a specific body part belongs to us, can be
selectively impaired in brain-damaged patients. Recently, a pathological form of …
