Abstract
Our bodily experience arises primarily from the integration of sensory interoceptive and motor signals, is mediated by innate stored information, and is directly mapped in sensorimotor corti-ces neuronally recalibrated when misperception occurs. This collection of recent research under-scores the high relevance of body and action processes to higher-order cognitive processes and self-awareness by bringing together contributions from neuropsychology, neuroscience, and cog-nitive psychology. This editorial presents the papers published in the special issue “The Role of Body in Brain Plasticity”, which summarize current knowledge about the body’s most important contribution to neural plasticity. Considering changes in the body system poses a major challenge in the clinical and rehabilitation contexts.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
