Experiment 2 experimental setup. (a) The participants will sit in front of a table, with both hands pressed and pulled out against their waist. A black cloak will be tied around the participant's neck; the other side of the cloak will be attached to the bottom of the table to prevent the participant seeing their body. (b) Similarly to Experiment 1, to detect the task of pressing and pulling out the participant's waist and activate the auditory stimulation, a force-sensitive resistor will be placed on one finger. The FSR will interface to a computer through an Arduino microcontroller. Likewise, Presentation® software version 18.0 will be used for stimulus delivery and response recording. (c) A horizontal ruler will be used to collect the participants' estimates of their waist width. The ruler will be located on the table. The ruler will be dark on the side facing the participant. Two horizontal metal clips will be mounted on the ruler, each with a red dot that will serve as visual points that the participant will use to mark their waist position. A red fixation point will be placed on the middle of the table
