Interoceptive inference, emotion, and the embodied self
TLDR
A predictive, inferential perspective on interoception: 'interoceptive inference' conceives of subjective feeling states (emotions) as arising from actively-inferred generative (predictive) models of the causes of interoceptive afferents.About:

Active sampling during visual search is modulated by the cardiac cycle
TL;DR: The results suggest that interoceptive and exteroceptive processing do adjust to each other; in this case, by sampling the outer environment during quiescent periods of the inner organism.

Comment: The Methodological and Conceptual Utility of Differentiating Emotional Arousal
TL;DR: In this comment, methodological and conceptual refinements are suggested that may help to strengthen the multiple arousal theory perspective.

Sonic Imagination: Body, Visual Mental Imagery, and Nomadism
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate the relationship between internal bodily experiences triggered by external ones, and vice versa, forming a whole, including visual mental imagery as a first-person experience and consider cultural contexts of perception.

Active vision varies across the cardiac cycle
TL;DR: In this paper, the heartbeat's role for active information sampling was investigated, and the authors found that self-initiated picture onsets vary across the cardiac cycle, showing an increase during cardiac systole, while memory performance was not affected by the heartbeat.

Group Identities in Conflicts
Martin Kolmar,Andreas Wagener +1 more
TL;DR: The authors showed that if groups are similar in size and conflict technology, all groups will adopt a group identity, reducing welfare for all, which is beneficial at first sight, however, in contests between groups, identification escalates conflicts, increasing rent dissipation and possibly generating welfare losses.

How do you feel--now? The anterior insula and human awareness.
TL;DR: New findings suggest a fundamental role for the AIC (and the von Economo neurons it contains) in awareness, and thus it needs to be considered as a potential neural correlate of consciousness.

The Feeling of What Happens: Body and Emotion in the Making of Consciousness
TL;DR: The Feeling of What Happens as mentioned in this paper is a theory of the nature of consciousness and the construction of the self, which is the feeling of what happens-our mind noticing the body's reaction to the world and responding to that experience.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.

Saliency, switching, attention and control: a network model of insula function
Vinod Menon,Lucina Q. Uddin +1 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that this framework provides a parsimonious account of insula function in neurotypical adults, and may provide novel insights into the neural basis of disorders of affective and social cognition.
