On the Failure to Recognize the Back of One's Own Hand

Abstract
Subjects were able to discriminate photographs of their own hands from other hand photographs but were unable to recognize their hands amongst a group of other objects when they were unaware that their hands were in the photographed set. It was concluded that recognition of even this highly familiar stimulus is dependent upon selection of the appropriate identifying cues, and that this process depends on expectation.
