Experiential ownership and body ownership are different phenomena

Abstract Body ownership concerns what it is like to feel a body part or a full body as mine, and has become a prominent area of study. We propose that there is a closely related type of bodily self-consciousness largely neglected by researchers—experiential ownership. It refers to the sense that I a...

description	Abstract Body ownership concerns what it is like to feel a body part or a full body as mine, and has become a prominent area of study.
