| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Although sleep contributes to various aspects of cognition, including learning and memory, its influence on illusory learning of the artificial hand has not yet been assessed. Using a rubber hand illusion paradigm in which humans can immediately perceive illusory ownership to an artificial hand, we found that although repetitive rubber hand illusion training facilitates multisensory integration, sleep corrects illusory integration based on experiences in a multisensory incongruent environment.
