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:

Audio-Tactile and Peripersonal Space Processing Around the Trunk in Human Parietal and Temporal Cortex: An Intracranial EEG Study

TL;DR: iEEG delineation of PPS processing in humans is represented and it is shown that PPS and multisensory integration happen at similar neural sites and time periods, suggesting that P PS representation is based on a spatial modulation of multisENSory integration.

The Discrete and Continuous Brain: From Decisions to Movement-And Back Again.
Thomas Parr,Karl J. Friston +1 more
TL;DR: This article considers the interface between the discrete and continuous processes that translate the authors' decisions into movement in a Newtonian world—and how movement informs their decisions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cognitive functions of intracellular mechanisms for contextual amplification.
TL;DR: It is concluded that evolution of thePrimitives of AA and disamplification in neocortex may have extended cognitive capabilities beyond those built from the long-established primitives of excitation, inhibition, and disinhibition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Better Safe Than Sorry: A Common Signature of General Vulnerability for Psychopathology.
TL;DR: This article presents a theoretical perspective within a predictive-processing framework in which it is suggested that the phenomenally distinct cognitive and affective psychopathological characteristics represent the same basic processing heuristic of the brain and are only different in relation to the particular type of information involved.
Journal ArticleDOI
An interoceptive illusion of effort induced by false heart-rate feedback.
TL;DR: It is found that participants reported higher levels of perceived effort when their heart-rate feedback was faster compared with when they cycled at the same level of intensity with a veridical feedback, which is reassuring, given that failing to notice one's own effort is dangerous in ecologically valid conditions.

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.

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.
