The method also allows for the extraction of dimensions and clusters in bodily space. The RHI was characterized by a moderately high degree of embodiment and a low level of perceived stimulation, and it clustered together with experiences associated with normal feelings of body ownership.

Novel method for rubber hand illusion strength measurement based on inverse multidimensional scaling - Behavior Research Methods In the present study, we developed a novel self-report measurement method for the rubber hand illusion (RHI) strength based on inverse multidimensional scaling (MDS). In the preregistered study consis...

Beyond Likert scales: We introduce a novel self-report method for measuring RHI strength using inverse multidimensional scaling. Ownership scores emerge from arrangements of bodily experiences in psychological bodily space as distances between RHI and baseline cases of no and full body ownership.
