How is our self related to midline regions and the default-mode network?
Pengmin Qin,Georg Northoff +1 more
TLDR
The data suggest that the sense of self may result from a specific kind of interaction between resting state activity and stimulus-induced activity, i.e., rest-stimulus interaction, within the midline regions.Citations

Self-evaluation of social-rank in socially anxious individuals associates with enhanced striatal reward function.
TL;DR: In this article , the authors examined brain activity related to both threat and reward processing during self-evaluation of high-power and low-intensity traits in the domains of power and affiliation, and found that SA-severity associated with increased activity in the ventral striatum and ventromedial prefrontal cortex.

Effect of low-intensity focused ultrasound of right anteromedial cortico-subcortical circuits on repetitive negative and self-referential thinking in depression: a sham-controlled randomized feasibility trial
TL;DR: In this article , the authors used low-intensity transcranial focused ultrasound (LIFU) to modulate individually identified neural circuits associated with the generation and maintenance of repetitive negative thinking (RNT), and affective processing of self-referential adjectives.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural representation of perceived race mediates the opposite relationship between subcomponents of self-construals and racial outgroup punishment
TL;DR: The authors found that interdependent self-construals were well explained by two subcomponents, including esteem for group (EG) and relational interdependence (RI), which are related to focus on group collectives and harmonious relationships, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Self-Concept Is Represented in the Medial Prefrontal Cortex in Terms of Self-Importance
TL;DR: In this paper , the importance of attributes to self-identity was represented in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), whereas mPFC activation was unrelated both to the self-descriptiveness of attributes and importance of the attributes to a friend's self identity.

The Structural Realist Theory of the Self
TL;DR: The structural realist theory of the self (SRS) as mentioned in this paper was proposed to reconcile conflicting philosophical implications of diverse theories of selfhood, without succumbing to the orthodox substantivalist theory.

A default mode of brain function.
Marcus E. Raichle,Ann Mary MacLeod,Abraham Z. Snyder,William J. Powers,Debra A. Gusnard,Gordon L. Shulman +5 more
TL;DR: A baseline state of the normal adult human brain in terms of the brain oxygen extraction fraction or OEF is identified, suggesting the existence of an organized, baseline default mode of brain function that is suspended during specific goal-directed behaviors.

AFNI: software for analysis and visualization of functional magnetic resonance neuroimages
TL;DR: A package of computer programs for analysis and visualization of three-dimensional human brain functional magnetic resonance imaging (FMRI) results is described and techniques for automatically generating transformed functional data sets from manually labeled anatomical data sets are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Brain's Default Network Anatomy, Function, and Relevance to Disease
TL;DR: Past observations are synthesized to provide strong evidence that the default network is a specific, anatomically defined brain system preferentially active when individuals are not focused on the external environment, and for understanding mental disorders including autism, schizophrenia, and Alzheimer's disease.

The human brain is intrinsically organized into dynamic, anticorrelated functional networks
Michael D. Fox,Abraham Z. Snyder,Justin L. Vincent,Maurizio Corbetta,David C. Van Essen,Marcus E. Raichle +5 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that both task-driven neuronal responses and behavior are reflections of this dynamic, ongoing, functional organization of the brain, featuring the presence of anticorrelated networks in the absence of overt task performance.

Functional connectivity in the resting brain: A network analysis of the default mode hypothesis
TL;DR: This study constitutes, to the knowledge, the first resting-state connectivity analysis of the default mode and provides the most compelling evidence to date for the existence of a cohesive default mode network.
