<About awarded research>

Our study deals with how the process of human body representation change is affected by sense of ownership and sense of agency. We focused on human upper limb and performed experiment with participants on four condition related to sensitivity of agency and ownership. As a result, it was found that both sense of agency and sense of ownership affect human body representation change of the body parts with visual information (finger) and only sense of agency affect human body representation change of the body parts without visual information (elbow).
