Bodily ownership and self-location: Components of bodily self-consciousness
Open accessAbstract
Recent research on bodily self-consciousness has assumed that it consists of three distinct components: the experience of owning a body (body ownership); the experience of being a body with a given location within the environment (self-location); and the experience of taking a first-person, body-centered, perspective on that environment (perspective). Here we review recent neuroimaging studies suggesting that at least two of these components-body ownership and self-location-are implemented in rather distinct neural substrates, located, respectively, in the premotor cortex and in the temporo-parietal junction. We examine these results and consider them in relation to clinical evidence from patients with altered body perception and work on a variety of multisensory, body-related illusions, such as the rubber hand illusion, the full body illusion, the body swap illusion and the enfacement illusion. We conclude by providing a preliminary synthesis of the data on bodily self-consciousness and its neural correlates.

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
This review argues that bodily self-consciousness comprises at least two dissociable components—body ownership and self-location—with distinct neural correlates in ventral premotor/posterior parietal cortex and temporo-parietal junction, respectively. It synthesizes fMRI, clinical, and multisensory illusion evidence into a preliminary distributed model, while noting the model is not exhaustive and experimental double dissociation remains incomplete.
Key findings
- Body ownership and self-location can be experimentally dissociated in one direction: the body swap illusion (Petkova et al., 2011) induced ownership for a mannequin without changing self-location, whereas the full body illusion (Ionta et al., 2011) altered self-location but also changed ownership, so only a single dissociation was experimentally demonstrated.
- Neural correlates differed: Petkova et al. found vPMc and PPc activity during synchronous visuo-tactile stimulation, with vPMc activity correlated with illusory ownership; Ionta et al. found TPJ activity modulated by synchronous touch and varying with experienced self-location and visuo-spatial perspective, with no specific vPMc or PPc activation reported.
- Clinical and rubber-hand-illusion evidence supports a double dissociation: out-of-body experiences and heautoscopy can show preserved self-identification/ownership with disturbed self-location; Rohde et al. dissociated proprioceptive drift from ownership ratings, and Longo et al.’s principal component analysis found ownership and location to be independent components. Blackmore (1984) found 24% of subjects reporting OBEs claimed a connection between their disembodied self and the seen body.
- The paper focuses on the weaker claim that at least two components are distinct, and suggests the stronger three-component claim is false because perspective is not wholly distinct from self-location. It proposes a distributed model: unisensory body signals in SI/EBA, multisensory integration in PPc/vPMc/insula, and visual-tactile-proprioceptive-vestibular convergence at the TPJ for self-location and perspective.
Methods
- Narrative review, not a primary study. It compares two fMRI adaptations of multisensory body illusions: Ionta et al. (2011), using touch on the back with a third-person virtual body, and Petkova et al. (2011), using touch on the chest with a first-person mannequin.
- Integrates evidence from neuroimaging, monkey electrophysiology, TMS, lesion and clinical cases (out-of-body experiences, heautoscopy, somatoparaphrenia), and illusions including the rubber hand illusion, full body illusion, body swap illusion, out-of-body illusion, and enfacement illusion.
- Main analysis is qualitative synthesis and proposal of a distributed neural model; no systematic search or meta-analysis is described.
Limitations
- Stated: the model is not exhaustive and neglects at least three aspects—the body in movement and agency, peripersonal space and tool use, and social interaction.
- Stated: experimental evidence for a double dissociation is incomplete; a change in self-location without any change in body ownership has not yet been produced experimentally, and this is left as an open question.
- Evident: as a narrative review, conclusions are based on selected studies and are preliminary/tentative; no new data or formal quantitative synthesis are provided.

“In conclusion, there is accumulating evidence suggesting that body ownership and selflocation are distinct aspects of bodily self-consciousness, whose neural correlates can be experimentally dissociated and identified, respectively, in the vPMc/PPc and in the TPJ.”

The authors state this as an assumption.
Bodily self-consciousness comprises at least three distinct components: body ownership, self-location, and perspective.
“Our aim in the following discussion is to provide some degree of validation for a third assumption driving this research, namely that bodily self-consciousness comprises at least three distinct components: the experience of owning a body (body ownership); the experience of being a body with a given location within our environment (self-location); and the experience of taking a first-person, body-”
The authors state this as an assumption.
There are at least two components of bodily self-consciousness that are distinct from one another, namely body ownership and self-location.
“Our discussion will focus on a weaker form of the assumption: that there are at least two components of bodily self-consciousness that are distinct from one another, namely body ownership and self-location.”
The authors state this as an assumption.
The behavioural effects of manipulating proprioceptive, interoceptive and exteroceptive signals can serve as implicit measures of phenomena described in explicit reports of subjective experience.
“The first is that the behavioural effects of manipulating proprioceptive, interoceptive and exteroceptive signals can serve as implicit measures of phenomena described in explicit reports of subjective experience.”
The authors state this as an assumption.
Global aspects of bodily self-consciousness can be studied by manipulating these sensory signals, despite the fact that their immediate processing is physiologically and computationally constrained to individual body parts.
“The second is that global aspects of bodily self-consciousness (pertaining to the experience of the body as a whole) can be studied by manipulating these sensory signals, despite the fact that their immediate processing is physiologically and computationally constrained to individual body parts”
The authors state this as an assumption.
Body ownership and self-location are distinct components of bodily self-consciousness.
“This cumulative evidence supports the (weaker) assumption that has driven research into bodily selfconsciousness-that body ownership and self-location are distinct components of the experience of oneself as a bodily subject.”
“we have made a case in support of one of these assumptions: that body ownership and self-location are distinct components of bodily selfconsciousness.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-09, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-09 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
