Neural Substrate of Body Size: Illusory Feeling of Shrinking of the Waist

The perception of the size and shape of one's body (body image) is a fundamental aspect of how we experience ourselves.

We scanned the brains of the participants using functional magnetic resonance imaging. We ...

A survey of 105 users provided background information about current use of these cloud storage services and identified 18 people for in-depth interviews. Use cases described in the interviews revealed a hierarchy of concepts that participants needed t...
