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

Can self-awareness be taught? Monkeys pass the mirror test—again
TL;DR: Chang et al. (1) build on prior work to provide further evidence that—with extensive training—rhesus macaques pass the mirror self-recognition test, suggesting this training either uncovers latent self-awareness or teaches the monkeys a new cognitive skill.
Journal ArticleDOI
The self and its internal thought: In search for a psychological baseline
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigate the psychological relationship of self with thought modes (rumination, reflection) and mind-wandering dynamics (spontaneous, deliberate), as well as with depressive symptomatology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-related processing and deactivation of cortical midline regions in disorders of consciousness
Julia Sophia Crone,Yvonne Höller,Jürgen Bergmann,Stefan Golaszewski,Eugen Trinka,Martin Kronbichler +5 more
TL;DR: The findings of this study do not provide evidence for a direct association of activation in anterior midline regions and conscious processing, but deficits in processing of self-referential content in anteriorMidline regions may rather be due to general impairments in cognitive processing and not particularly linked to impaired consciousness.

Brain electrical source imaging in manic and depressive episodes of bipolar disorder.
Annamaria Painold,Pascal L. Faber,Patricia Milz,Eva Z. Reininghaus,Anna K. Holl,Martin Letmaier,Roberto D. Pascual-Marqui,Bernd Reininghaus,Hans-Peter Kapfhammer,Dietrich Lehmann +9 more
TL;DR: This study compared EEG in BD during manic and depressive episodes, using brain electrical source imaging [standardized low‐resolution electromagnetic tomography (sLORETA)] to assess the cortical spatial distribution of the sources of EEG oscillation frequencies.

The self on its axis: a framework for understanding depression
Christopher Day,Ben J. Harrison +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper , a self-axis model of depression was proposed, which emphasises the multi-level nature of depression, and how impacts made at different explanatory levels influence others along the self axis.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.
