Surprisingly, self-voice perception has been investigated to a lesser extent than the selfface. Therefore, it remains to be clarified whether self-voice prioritization is boosted by emotion, and whether self-relevance and emotion interact differently when attention is focused on who is speaking vs. what is being said. T...
