      While decades of research findings have supported the idea that action attenuates predicted touch, recent work has countered this, proposing that action actually enhances predicted touch and the previously observed attenuation is due to tactile contact. This present study resolves these contradictory claims regarding the role of prediction in perception of self-action. This important work provides compelling evidence that self-generated touch is attenuated compared to the same touch externally-generated, and a clear explanation for recent high-profile results that appeared to support the opposite view.

      eLife assessment

      This work presents useful and potentially valuable findings on how food signals may influence reproduction in the nematode C. elegans. In the current manuscript, the evidence in support of the authors' model is incomplete, and additional experimental data is needed to buttress the authors' conclusions.
