Rubber Hand Illusion Increases Pain Caused by Electric Stimuli.

• We tested the effect of the rubber hand illusion on pain caused by electric stimuli.• Both real hands were covered and stimulated in a double-blind procedure.• Electric stimuli was experienced as more painful on the hand under the illusion.• The pain was experienced as located between the real hand and the rubber hand.• Uncertainty about the location of pain could increase its intensity.
