镜像触摸联觉（MTS）是一种导致人们在看到别人被触摸时体验到自己身体上的触觉的病症。最近的报道假设 MTS 与非典型的自我他人表征有关。有人认为，这可能与自我意识的两个主要组成部分的紊乱有关：代理感和所有权感。本研究调查了 MTS 中代理意识和所有权意识的变化。使用故意模糊自我与他人之间界限的范式，我们不仅发现 MTS 影响代理感和所有权感，而且自我意识的这些方面受到不同的影响。我们认为，代理意识的改变可能与 MTS 中所有权意识的更深刻的干扰有关，并且 MTS 的特征可能是自我他人处理中的潜在困难。
Mirror-touch synaesthesia (MTS) is a condition that leads people to experience tactile sensations on their own body when watching at someone else being touched. Recent accounts postulate that MTS is linked with atypical self-other representations. It has been suggested that this may be associated with disturbances in two main components of self-awareness: sense of agency and sense of ownership. This study investigates changes in sense of agency and sense of ownership in MTS. Using a paradigm that deliberately blurs the boundaries between the self and the other, we not only found that MTS affects sense of agency and sense of ownership, but that these aspects of self-awareness are affected differently. We suggest that alterations in sense of agency can be linked to more profound disturbances in sense of ownership in MTS, and that MTS may be characterised by underlying difficulties in self-other processing.
