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.

Large-scale brain networks and psychopathology: a unifying triple network model

TL;DR: A triple network model of aberrant saliency mapping and cognitive dysfunction in psychopathology is proposed, emphasizing the surprising parallels that are beginning to emerge across psychiatric and neurological disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

The default network and self-generated thought: component processes, dynamic control, and clinical relevance

TL;DR: Evidence is presented that self‐generated thought is a multifaceted construct whose component processes are supported by different subsystems within the network, and clinical implications of disruptions to the integrity of the network are discussed.

The entropic brain: a theory of conscious states informed by neuroimaging research with psychedelic drugs

TL;DR: It is argued that the defining feature of “primary states” is elevated entropy in certain aspects of brain function, such as the repertoire of functional connectivity motifs that form and fragment across time, and that this entropy suppression furnishes normal waking consciousness with a constrained quality and associated metacognitive functions, including reality-testing and self-awareness.

A meta-analysis of functional neuroimaging studies of self-and other judgments reveals a spatial gradient for mentalizing in medial prefrontal cortex

TL;DR: A meta-analysis of 107 neuroimaging studies of self- and other-related judgments using multilevel kernel density analysis argues for a distributed rather than localizationist account of mPFC organization and support an emerging view on the functional heterogeneity ofmPFC.

On the relationship between the "default mode network" and the "social brain".

TL;DR: This claim that social cognition, particularly higher-order tasks such as attributing mental states to others, has been suggested to activate a network of areas at least partly overlapping with the DMN is explored, drawing on evidence from meta-analyses of functional MRI data and recent studies investigating the structural and functional connectivity of the social brain.

Emotional perception: Meta-analyses of face and natural scene processing

TL;DR: The overlay of significant meta-analyses resulted in extensive overlap in clusters, coupled with offset and unique clusters of reliable activity in areas of greatest overlap is the amygdala, followed by regions of medial prefrontal cortex, inferior frontal/orbitofrontal cortex, and extrastriate occipital cortex.

Neural activity that predicts subsequent memory and forgetting: a meta-analysis of 74 fMRI studies.

TL;DR: Findings from a quantitative meta-analysis of functional MRI studies that used a subsequent memory approach clarify the neural activity that supports successful encoding, as well as the Neural activity that leads to encoding failure.

Neural basis of cultural influence on self-representation.

TL;DR: It is found that the medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC) and anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) showed stronger activation in self- than other-judgment conditions for both Chinese and Western subjects, providing neuroimaging evidence that culture shapes the functional anatomy of self-representation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The neural correlates of direct and reflected self-knowledge.

TL;DR: The results support models suggesting that MPFC mediates meta-cognitive processes that may be recruited for direct and reflected self appraisals depending upon the demands of a specific task.

Unrest at rest: default activity and spontaneous network correlations.

TL;DR: This work argues that structured activity patterns that exist during passive task states may reflect neural functions that consolidate the past, stabilize brain ensembles, and prepare us for the future and advocates the systematic exploration of rest activity.
