First person perspective of seated participants over a walking virtual body leads to illusory agency over the walking

Agency, the attribution of authorship to an action of our body, requires the intention to carry out the action, and subsequently a match between its predicted and actual sensory consequences. However, illusory agency can be generated through priming of the action together with perception of bodily a...
