Results for the conjunction analysis.

<p>a) whole brain analysis (<i>p</i><.05, FWE-corrected); the number above each slice indicates the height (z-coordinate in Montreal Neurological Institute [MNI] space); b) analysis for bilateral ventral premotor cortex using regions of interest (<i>p</i><.005, uncorrected); given is the y-coordinate of the slices of peak activity (in MNI space). MOG =  middle occipital gyrus; MTG =  middle temporal gyrus; S2+ =  secondary somatosensory cortex plus its vicinity; PG =  precentral gyrus. Color bars indicate <i>t</i>-values.</p

Setup of the virtual hand illusion.

<p>a) participant's view of the virtual reality environment, including the virtual limb and the stimulating rod at its starting position, b) the same view and rod at its end position touching the virtual finger, c) close-up picture of the pneumatic tactor, d) pneumatic tactor, attached to the participants' left index finger, e) participant lying on the table connected with the magnetic resonance imaging scanner. The participant has given written informed consent, as outlined in the PLOS consent form, to publication of her photograph.</p

Illusion vividness ratings.

<p>a) Depicted are the virtual hand illusion (VHI) intensity ratings for each item in each condition. Items # 1–3 represent targets indicating ownership over the virtual hand, and items # 4–9 represent distractors. The number at the base of each target item bar indicates the number of non-responders (i.e., responses  = 0; only given for target items). Asterisks indicate significant differences between the synchronous and distinctly asynchronous conditions (Bonferroni-corrected p-values on item level). Note that there were only significant results for the target items. There were no significant differences between the synchronous and slightly asynchronous conditions for any item.Error bars indicate standard error; b) For illustrative purposes, the ratings of participants who responded minimally (participant # 1–5) or maximally (participant # 21–25) to illusion induction are depicted, arranged according to the proneness to perceive the VHI in the 0 condition (VHI vividness score). Colors indicate the conditions. The 0 condition reflects the visuotactile stimulation in synchrony. Negative signs indicate the temporal delay (in milliseconds), which means that the tactile stimulation was applied prior to the visual stimulation; positive signs indicate that the tactile stimulation was applied after the visual stimulation.</p
