Abstract
⺠We investigate self-recognition in a group of mirror-touch synaesthetes. ⺠Viewing touch on another's face induced a significant change in self-recognition. ⺠Stored facial representations were updated to incorporate the other's features. ⺠The observation of touch changes the way synesthetes represent their own bodies.
