Article Synopsis
- E+ Disorder Overview
- : E+ is a delusion after brain damage where patients perceive an 'alien' arm as their own, particularly affecting their awareness of their contralesional space due to spatial neglect.
- Research Method
- : The study involved four left neglect patients, some embodying the alien arm and some not, who underwent prismatic training with the 'alien' arm moving toward visual targets, comparing first-person (body-congruent) and third-person (body-incongruent) perspectives.
- Findings
- : Results showed that neglect symptoms improved significantly more in patients with E+ during first-person perspective training, suggesting that their embodiment of the 'alien' arm modifies spatial representation in their

When we successfully achieve willed actions, the feeling that our moving body parts belong to the self (i.e., body ownership) is barely required.

Spatial perspective taking is a human ability that permits to assume another person's spatial viewpoint. Data show that spatial perspective taking might arise even spontaneously by the mere presence of another person in the environment. We investigated whether this phenomenon is observable also in blind people.

Amputees with phantom limb sometimes report vivid experiences of moving their phantom. Is phantom movement only "imaginary", or, instead, it has physiological properties comparable to those pertaining to real movements? To answer this question, we took advantage of the intermanual transfer of sequence learning, occurring when one hand motor skills improve after training with the other hand. Ten healthy controls and two upper-limb amputees (with and without phantom-movement) were recruited.
