Abstract
Right-vestibular network stimulation significantly disrupted participants’ proprioception in favour of vision during a Rubber Hand Illusion. It increased proprioceptive drift towards a rubber hand during mere visual exposure to it as well as during synchronous slow, affective stroking, thus corroborating the hypothesis that the right-vestibular network modulates multisensory integration.
