Interaction effect of the avatar’s perspective and interoceptive sensibility on perceived body location during the ‘Embreathment illusion’ in both male and female samples. Ratings of perceived body location differed when the avatar was shown in first-person perspective compared to the third-person perspective in men with lower interoceptive sensibility. This difference smoothed out as interoceptive sensibility increased. The difference between the slopes was not significant in the females. Male sample data were taken from Monti and colleagues’ dataset²².
