| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Senses of body ownership and agency are fundamental to bodily self-consciousness. Body ownership refers to the feeling that body (parts) belongs to one’s own, while agency refers to the feeling of controlling one’s own actions and causing external events. Our results suggest that body ownership and agency over a virtual hand may differentially modulate various body representations in the brain. Moreover, using delayed visual feedback, we suggest that movement variability during virtual hand illusion induction affected agency directly, but did body ownership indirectly via agency.
