TLDR
Findings in this issue add to increasing evidence for the role of anterior insula as the interface between physiologically driven internal motivational states, emotional awareness and interpersonal behaviour.Abstract:
In this issue, Terasawa and colleagues used functional neuroimaging to test for common neural substrates supporting conscious appraisal of subjective bodily and emotional states and explored how the relationship might account for personality and experience of anxiety symptoms. Their study highlights a role for the same region of anterior insula cortex in appraisal of emotions and bodily physiology. The reactivity of this region also mediated theread more

"Cognitive, social, and physiological determinants of emotional state": Erratum
TL;DR: The problem of which cues, internal or external, permit a person to label and identify his own emotional state has been with us since the days that James first tendered his doctrine that "the bodily changes follow directly the perception of the exciting fact".

Knowing your own heart: distinguishing interoceptive accuracy from interoceptive awareness.
Sarah N. Garfinkel,Sarah N. Garfinkel,Anil K. Seth,Adam B. Barrett,Keisuke Suzuki,Hugo D. Critchley +5 more
TL;DR: Empirical support for dissociation between dimensions of interoceptive accuracy, sensibility and awareness is provided and set the context for defining how the relative balance of accuracy, Sensibility and Awareness dimensions explain cognitive, emotional and clinical associations of interOceptive ability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interoception and emotion.
TL;DR: This work describes the afferent signalling, central processing, and neural and mental representation of internal bodily signals in interoception, and describes the recognition of dissociable psychological dimensions of interoceptions.

TL;DR: It is concluded that maladaptive construal of bodily sensations may lie at the heart of many contemporary maladies, and that contemplative practices may attenuate these interpretative biases, restoring a person’s sense of presence and agency in the world.

TL;DR: The results indicate an origin of emotion deficits and affective symptoms in ASC at the interface between body and mind, specifically in expectancy-driven interpretation of interoceptive information.

Dissociable Intrinsic Connectivity Networks for Salience Processing and Executive Control
William W. Seeley,Vinod Menon,Alan F. Schatzberg,Jennifer Keller,Gary H. Glover,Heather A. Kenna,Allan L. Reiss,Michael D. Greicius +7 more
TL;DR: Two distinct networks typically coactivated during functional MRI tasks are identified, anchored by dorsal anterior cingulate and orbital frontoinsular cortices with robust connectivity to subcortical and limbic structures, and an “executive-control network” that links dorsolateral frontal and parietal neocortices.

Cognitive, social, and physiological determinants of emotional state.
TL;DR: The problem of which cues, internal or external, permit a person to label and identify his own emotional state has been with us since the days that James (1890) first tendered his doctrine that "the bodily changes follow directly the perception of the exciting fact, and that our feeling of the same changes as they occur is the emotion" (p. 449) as mentioned in this paper.

How do you feel? Interoception: the sense of the physiological condition of the body.
TL;DR: Functional anatomical work has detailed an afferent neural system in primates and in humans that represents all aspects of the physiological condition of the physical body that might provide a foundation for subjective feelings, emotion and self-awareness.

Deciding Advantageously Before Knowing the Advantageous Strategy
TL;DR: The results suggest that, in normal individuals, nonconscious biases guide behavior before conscious knowledge does, and without the help of such biases, overt knowledge may be insufficient to ensure advantageous behavior.
