text: the affectivity attributed to the others might also be perceived 
  as vague and misinterpreted (e.g. “Is he/she interested in me or 
  not?” “Am I a person worthy of attention and love from oth- 
  ers?”). Bodily illusions, such as the “rubber hand illusion” (Suzuki 
  et al. 2013, Crucianelli et al. 2018) and the “enfacement illu- 
  sion” (Sforza et al. 2010, Tajadura-Jiménez et al. 2012), provide 
  compelling evidence for the malleability of self-other bound- 
  aries as a function of bodily information and of interoceptive 
  sensibility. 
  
  of onset of NSSI tends to be early adolescence, between 12 and 
  14 years of age, and the behavior appears to decline after young 
  adulthood (Nock et al. 2009). 
  
  Dealing with these ambiguous situations could be particu- 
  larly challenging and distressing for a person with no adaptive 
  strategies to reduce uncertainty. Therefore, in these (admittedly 
  extreme) conditions, even maladaptive strategies such as star- 
  vation that reduce uncertainty and render bodily and interocep- 
  tive stimuli more salient might become more appealing (see also 
  Linson et al. 2020). In other words, while starvation would still be 
  considered paradoxical—in the sense that it runs against the “util- 
  itarian” imperative of ensuring well-being and survival—it might 
  play a functional role for an organism that simultaneously tries 
  to “maximize utility and minimize uncertainty,” as assumed by 
  active inference.
