Intrinsic neural activity predisposes susceptibility to a body illusion.

Susceptibility to the rubber hand illusion (RHI) varies. To date, however, there is no consensus explanation of this variability. Previous studies, focused on the role of multisensory integration, have searched for neural correlates of the illusion.

Beyond the SNARC effect: distance-number mapping occurs in the peripersonal space.

Estimating distance of objects relative to one's body is important for interaction with the environment. Given that distance is an interval of magnitude describing space, distance and the commonly used estimations of magnitude, i.e.

[Intelligence evaluation of 22 patients with congenital velopharyngeal incompetence].

Objective: To study the intelligence of 22 patients with CVPI.

Methods: We examined the IQ of 22 patients with CVPI by Wechsler Primary Preschool Scale of Intelligence (WPSSI) and Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised (WISC-R).

Results: The IQ of patients with CVPI was 44-109.
