MY BODY?
2
Which is my body and how do I distinguish it from the bodies of others, or from
objects in the surrounding environment?
The perception of our own body and more particularly our sense of body ownership
is taken for granted.

IS THAT MY BODY
3
Which is my body and how do I distinguish it from the bodies of others, or from
objects in the surrounding environment?
The perception of our own body and more particularly our sense of body ownership
is taken for granted.
Findings from body ownership illusions, show that under specific multisensory
conditions, we can experience artificial body parts or fake bodies as our own

DIFFERENT BODY REPRESENTATIONS
4
- Explicit Representation
- Canonical posture
- Based on visual input
BODY IMAGE BODY SCHEMA
- Implicit Representation
- Proprioception
- Action-oriented
Head & Holmes, 1911
Patients could not touch one’s
own body parts, if touched by
the experimenter
Patients could not touch one’s
own body parts in vision, but
could do that once it was
touched by the experimenter
without it

SCHIZOPHRENIA
5
Altered body consciousness in schizophrenic and hallucinated patients
Daprati et al., 1997
![Page 6: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
SOMATOPARAPHRENIA
6
A sense of disownership: the delusional belief that the contralesional limbs do not
belong to one's own body but to another person
Romano et al., 2014
![Page 7: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
BODY ILLUSION
7
Body illusion distorsion: in which people can perceive that the size or the posture of
their body part(s) have changed dramatically
Body illusion ownership: refer to the illusory perception of non-bodily objects (e.g.,
artificial limbs) as being parts of one’s own body
![Page 8: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
BODY ILLUSION DISTORSION
8
People can perceive that the size or the posture of their body part(s) have changed
dramatically without necessarily satisfying the anatomical constraints of the human
body
Illusory body distortions relies on kinaesthetic illusions, in which blindfolded
subjects experience the illusory movement of a static body part and therefore non-
veridical proprioceptive states
![Page 9: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
THE PINOCCHIO ILLUSION
9
A blindfolded participant receives vibration on his biceps while touching the tip of his
nose with his fingers. The illusory extension of the arm generates the illusion that his
nose, his fingers or both are elongating (Lackner, 1988)
![Page 10: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
THE PHANTOM NOSE ILLUSION
10
The experimenter moves the finger of a blindfolded participant to tap the nose of
another subject, while simultaneously tapping the nose of the participant (Ramachandran and Hirstein, 1998)
![Page 11: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Conflicting visual-somatosensory input in virtual reality to disrupt the spatial
unity between the self and the body

BODY ILLUSION OWNERSHIP
13
Illusory perception of non-bodily objects (e.g., artificial limbs) as being parts of one’s
own body and as being the source of the associated bodily sensations, such as
touch
One can get to experience a mannequin’s hand as his/her own hand, and have strong
physiological responses when seeing it being attacked with a knife
![Page 14: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
THE RUBBER HAND ILLUSION
14
Healthy adults experience a rubber hand as if it were their own hand (Botvinick & Cohen,
1998)
![Page 15: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
THE RUBBER HAND ILLUSION
15
Healthy adults experience a rubber hand as if it were their own hand (Botvinick & Cohen,
1998)
Experienced when touch between the real and rubber hand is synchronous
![Page 16: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Proprioceptive drift

Not all objects can be experienced as part of one’s body!

19Lira et al., 2017
![Page 20: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
THE MIRROR BOX THERAPY
20
The Mirror box (MB) therapy was originally developed by Ramachandran as a tool
to reduce phantom limb pain after amputation (Ramachandran & Rogers-Ramachandran,
1996)
![Page 21: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
THE MIRROR BOX THERAPY
21Foell et al., 2013
The MB therapy induces a reduction of phantom limb sensation
![Page 22: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
THE MIRROR BOX THERAPY
22Romano et al., 2013
The MB in normal participants
![Page 23: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
THE MIRROR BOX THERAPY
23Romano et al., 2013
Proprioceptive sensory uncertainty in the hand inside the box
![Page 24: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
BODY DIMENSION
24
The representation of body size
![Page 25: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
HAND REPRESENTATION
25Longo et al., 2008
![Page 26: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
HAND REPRESENTATION
26Longo et al., 2008
![Page 27: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
BODY SIZE AND PAIN
27Mancini et al., 2011
Simply viewing the body reduces the reported intensity of acute physical pain
(analgesia)
![Page 28: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
BODY SIZE AND PAIN
28Mancini et al., 2011
Visual enlargement of the viewed hand enhanced analgesia, whereas visual
reduction of the hand decreased analgesia
![Page 29: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
DECODING TACTILE ORDER

TEMPORAL ORDER OF TOUCH
30Yamamoto & Kitazawa, 2001
Simply report which hand was simulated first (i.e., different intervals between
the two vibrotactile stimulations)
![Page 31: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
TEMPORAL ORDER OF TOUCH
31Yamamoto & Kitazawa, 2001
Disruption of temporal perception with crossed hands
![Page 32: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
TEMPORAL ORDER OF TOUCH
32Roder et al., 2004
Is this driven by a conflict between external and bodily-centered coordinates
due to vision?
![Page 33: BODY REPRESENTATION - UNIMIB](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070300/6156f76ea097e25c764f7d98/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
TEMPORAL ORDER OF TOUCH
33
The performance of late, but not of congenitally, blind people was impaired by
crossing the hands
Roder et al., 2004
