Abstract
This study investigated the influence of global self-motion (walking) on the sense of whole-body ownership induced by virtual hands-and-feet stimuli that moved synchronously with participants. Participants were exposed to normal and scrambled arrangements of hands and feet, while performing reaching tasks with or without walking. Results showed that scrambled hand-and-feet arrangements significantly decreased the sense of part-body ownership, whole-body ownership, invisible body perception, and agency. It did not significantly improve whole-body or part-body ownership. These findings suggest that global self-motion might not be a crucial factor in enhancing body ownership, and further research is needed to explore alternative methods for improving the embodiment.
