Table 3 Suggested measures and experiments for common evaluations in prosthetics to improve comparability between research groups

From: Prosthetic embodiment: systematic review on definitions, measures, and experimental paradigms

Application

Experiment

Measures

Evaluate sensory feedback strategy when closed-loop prosthetic system is not available

RHI

Explicit ownership: Adapted RHI questionnaire [78] only containing ownership question on 7-point Likert scale

Implicit ownership: adjusted CCE score[90]

Evaluate sensory feedback strategy when closed-loop prosthetic system is available

(dynamic) Prosthesis Incorporation (PIC) assessment

Explicit ownership: PembS [59, 96] omitting agency questions if not dynamic version of PIC

Implicit ownership: adjusted CCE score [90]

Evaluate control strategies

Adapted Libet clock

Explicit agency: PembS [59, 96], omitting ownership questions if no sensory feedback is provided

Implicit agency: Intentional binding using a direct time interval estimation [92]

Evaluate novel sensory or control algorithms during daily life

Interview

Explicit ownership and eplicit agency: Administer PembS [59, 96] at regular time intervals
