Rubber Arm Experiment | MAGIC FOR HUMANS

[@NoctilucaBloom]

This is an actual phenomenon and there are scientific papers written on it. That being said, as someone who both performed this test and had it performed on me, it doesn't work on everyone, and the strength of the illusion varies from person to person. And I remember the illusion immediately breaking as soon as I moved any part of my hidden hand. It's hard for me to believe the illusion held strong even when the woman's finger was lifted under the flame. The hand positioning being as similar as possible to the fake hand is an important part of this test.

@@Wildart2 It might be strange to imagine, but a considerable portion of our nociceptive impulses are modulated by our attention system. The rubber hand effect is definetly a thing, not because of this video but because there are scientific papers with experiments and data that prove it works. Having said that I am not sure where the limit in the pain threshold is before noticing the pain stimulus. So they may be paid actors to make the service more sensational, but I assure you that in the experiments, real participants did not notice needle pricks on the skin.

[@greenbackz]

that's not the same thing as what is demonstrated in this video.. that is called phantom pain. happens in most amputees.

[@georgi1690]

Phantom pains !

[@RaveMasterr]

@@greenbackz the principle is very much similar, instead of rubber, they have their imagination that it is still there and such can feel.

[@GrammeStudio]

@@greenbackz it's the same, the pain are felt AT the brain to be exact, not at the point of stimulus, or receptors. amputees or not, they all feel sensation in their brain, not in their arm, which is why the illusion shown here is possible in the first place phantom = ghost = non-real. they both feel pain that isn't 'real'. to be specific, both the test subjects and amputees feel pain that originate and is generated from the brain, not the skin of the arm. if we hook the real hands to machine to detect nerve signalling towards the brain, we will find none.

[@adriennestudaway893]

The power of BS might be a play somewhat but this is science as well. It's a neuropsychological phenomenon that contributes to phantom limb syndrome. The human brain does not like discontinuity and is constantly trying to fill in the blanks as a protective measure. So we see faces in things that don't have them, jerk away from a hot stove before we actually register the burn, and fill in the gap for sensations. (There's more to it than that but you get the gist)

[@rebeccab1064]

I agree with most of these. Jerking away from a hot stove, however, is a physiological phenomenon which I don't think fits - the brain isn't involved in the response. Skin receptors send a signal to the spinal cord/CNS, and that reacts in a reflex arc before pain signals ever reach the brain.

The rubber hand test shows that the mind works on an imaginary plane, we are imaginary. Here the mind does not switch from a physical circuit, nerves, tissue, skin, to a fictitious circuit - the rubber hand, but switches from one imaginary circuit to another, equally imaginary. Remember that the mind does not see the hand, vision takes place in the mind, not in the eye. Everything the mind decodes is the fruit of software, that is, reality is like a program - a computer game. 🙃

How do researchers design Magic Arm Experiments to ensure they are safe and effective for participants with Phantom Limb and prosthetic limbs? Can Magic Arm Experiments be adapted to suit different types of prosthetic limbs, such as hands, arms, legs, or feet, and their respective motor functions? What neuroscientific principles are applied in Magic Arm Experiments to enhance the brain's ability to recognize the prosthetic limb as a functional part of the user's body?

[@ettinakitten5047]

I've heard of treatments for phantom limb that are similar but using a mirror instead of a rubber hand, so a person who's missing one limb can see at the reflection of their intact limb where their lost limb should be. Apparently it can make them feel like their phantom limb is mirroring the movements of their intact limb. One guy I heard of had the feeling that his phantom limb was painfully clenched and couldn't relax, so they did the mirror trick and had him clench his intact hand and then slowly relax it, and it helped. It can take practice to work, though, it's not an instant thing.
