Designing self-tracking experiences: A qualitative study of the perceptions of barriers and facilitators to adopting digital health technology for automatic urine analysis at home

Nicolas Henchoz, Delphine Ribes Lemay, Emily Clare Groves, Andrea Regula Schneider, Margherita Motta

Self-tracking technologies open new doors to previously unimaginable scenarios. The diagnosis of diseases years in advance, or supporting the health of astronauts on missions to Mars are just some of many example applications. During the COVID-19 pandemic, ...

Breathing affects self-other voice discrimination in a bodily state associated with somatic passivity

Olaf Blanke, Giulio Rognini, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Hyeongdong Park, Pavo Orepic

A growing number of studies have focused on identifying cognitive processes that are modulated by interoceptive signals, particularly in relation to the respiratory or cardiac cycle. Considering the fundamental role of interoception in bodily self-consciou ...

Increased functional connectivity of the intraparietal sulcus underlies the attenuation of numerosity estimations for self-generated words

Olaf Blanke, Giulio Rognini, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Jevita Potheegadoo, Michael Eric Anthony Pereira, Giedre Stripeikyte

Previous studies have shown that self-generated stimuli in auditory, visual, and somatosensory domains are attenuated, producing decreased behavioral and neural responses compared to the same stimuli that are externally generated. Yet, whether such attenua ...

Breathing affect self-other voice discrimination in a bodily state with increased otherness

Olaf Blanke, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Giulio Rognini, Hyeongdong Park, Pavo Orepic

A growing number of studies have focused on identifying cognitive processes that are modulated by interoceptive signals. Here we investigated whether interoception affects self-processing, by assessing changes in self-voice perception as a function of resp ...

Dissecting self-voice perception: From bone conduction to robotically-induced self-other voice misattribution in healthy listeners

Pavo Orepic

Inspired by the prominent theory suggesting that auditory-verbal hallucinations (AVH) - the sensation of hearing voices without present speakers - arise as misattribution of inner speech towards external agents, my thesis revolved around self-voice percept ...

Flight of mind: Sensorimotor and multisensory embodiment with aviation robotics, flight simulator, and virtual reality

Myeong Seop Song

Normally, humans experience an 'I' as residing in one's body and as the agent of one's actions. In other words, the self is experienced as being inside the body (self-location), as having a body (self-identification), and as being able to control the perso ...

Audio-visual sensory deprivation degrades visuo-tactile peri-personal space

Olaf Blanke, Hervé Lissek, Andrea Serino, Hyeongdong Park, Isabella Maria Pasqualini

Self-perception is scaffolded upon the integration of multisensory cues on the body, the space surrounding the body (i.e., the peri-personal space; PPS), and from within the body. We asked whether reducing information available from external space would ch ...

Sensorimotor Induction of Auditory Misattribution in Psychosis is Linked to Neural Disconnectivity

Olaf Blanke, Alessandra Griffa, Patric Hagmann, Andrea Serino, Roy Salomon, Giulio Rognini, Silvia Marchesotti

Background: Schneiderian first rank symptoms (FRS) are characterized by a diminished demarcation of self-other boundaries, causing misattribution of self-generated thoughts and actions to external sources. We have shown that introducing sensorimotor predic ...

The Architectonic Experience of Body and Space in Augmented Interiors

Olaf Blanke, Andrea Serino, Isabella Maria Pasqualini, Maria Laura Blefari

The environment shapes our experience of space in constant interaction with the body. Architectonic interiors amplify the perception of space through the bodily senses; an effect also known as embodiment. The interaction of the bodily senses with the space ...

Interplay between Narrative and Bodily Self in Access to Consciousness: No Difference between Self- and Non-self Attributes

Olaf Blanke, Andrea Serino, Roy Salomon

The construct of the self is conceived as being fundamental in promoting survival. As such, extensive studies have documented preferential processing of self-relevant stimuli. For example, attributes that relate to the self are better encoded and retrieved ...

Interferences between breathing, experimental dyspnoea and bodily self-consciousness

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Javier Bello Ruiz, Elisa Canzoneri

Dyspnoea, a subjective experience of breathing discomfort, is a most distressing symptom. It implicates complex cortical networks that partially overlap with those underlying bodily self-consciousness, the experience that the body is one's own within a giv ...

Peripersonal space as the space of the bodily self

Olaf Blanke, Andrea Serino, Christian Pfeiffer

Bodily self-consciousness (BSC) refers to experience of one's self as located within an owned body (self-identification) and as occupying a specific location in space (self-location). BSC can be altered through multisensory stimulation, as in the Full Body ...

Breathing and sense of self: Visuo-respiratory conflicts alter body self-consciousness

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin

Bodily self-consciousness depends on the processing of interoceptive and exteroceptive signals. It can be disrupted by inducing signal conflicts. Breathing, at the crossroad between interoception and exteroception, should contribute to bodily self-consciou ...

Experience Catalysts And Architecture Towards a New Tradition

Jeffrey Huang, Selena Savic, Andrew James Sempere, Jens Badura

This paper describes two research projects in the field of interactive architecture, both examples of experience catalysts; Settings which allow new insights in the aesthetic constitution and perception of environments. This term can be thought of as somew ...

"Self pop-out": agency enhances self-recognition in visual search

Olaf Blanke, Roy Salomon, Oliver Alan Kannape, Joan Llobera Mahy

In real-life situations, we are often required to recognize our own movements among movements originating from other people. In social situations, these movements are often correlated (for example, when dancing or walking with others) adding considerable d ...

Visual capture and the experience of having two bodies – Evidence from two different virtual reality techniques

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Jane Aspell, Lukas Heydrich

In neurology and psychiatry the detailed study of illusory own body perceptions has suggested close links between bodily processing and self-consciousness. One such illusory own body perception is heautoscopy where patients have the sensation of being redu ...

Self-sensing of linear short-stroke actuators for multi-finger haptic interfaces using induced high frequency oscillations

Yves Perriard, Grégory Savioz

With the aim of providing a new touch sensation to the user, the design of innovative multi-finger haptic devices passes through the research for efficient and low-cost methods for position sensing. This paper thus addresses a novel self-sensing method for ...

Seeing and identifying with a virtual body decreases pain perception

Olaf Blanke

Pain and the conscious mind (or the self) are experienced in our body. Both are intimately linked to the subjective quality of conscious experience. Here, we used virtual reality technology and visuo-tactile conflicts in healthy subjects to test whether ex ...

The Rhythm of Bodily Self-Consciousness

Recent philosophical, psychological and neuroscientific theories suggest that bodily experience is crucial for the phenomenology of selfhood (i.e. the experience of 'being someone'). In this thesis I have shown that two essential aspects of bodily self-con ...
