Abstract:
Bottom-up multisensory integration and top-down modulation were predicted to be important for ownership and agency. Сognitive load was revealed to affect the sense of agency in a top-down fashion, but its effect on ownership has not been fully investigated, not even its possibly different effect on explicit and implicit measures. Here we used cognitive load (small vs. large sets in a working-memory task) to disentangle explicit and implicit measures of ownership and agency in a task inducing the virtual hand illusion. Results showed similar patterns for ownership and agency. The load manipulation was selective with regard to the explicit versus implicit nature of the measure but not with respect to the measure’s content.
