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:

Panic Disorder Comorbidity with Medical Conditions and Treatment Implications
TL;DR: This review examines the association between PD and medical illness and identifies shared pathophysiological and psychological correlates and illustrates how physiological activation in panic sufferers underlies their symptom experience in the context of the fight-or-flight response and beyond a situation-specific response pattern.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mystical and Other Alterations in Sense of Self: An Expanded Framework for Studying Nonordinary Experiences.
TL;DR: Self-report measures that distinguish between generically worded experiences and the way they are appraised in terms of valence, significance, cause, and long-term effects in different contexts are needed to better understand the nature and effects of unusual experiences.

Breathing-driven prefrontal oscillations regulate maintenance of conditioned-fear evoked freezing independently of initiation.

TL;DR: This article showed that during fear-related freezing, the olfactory bulb transmits 4'Hz breathing rhythm to the prefrontal cortex where this oscillation organizes local activity and regulates freezing episode duration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interoceptive Impairments Do Not Lie at the Heart of Autism or Alexithymia
Toby Nicholson,David M. Williams,Catherine Grainger,Julia F. Christensen,Beatriz Calvo-Merino,Sebastian B. Gaigg +5 more
TL;DR: Observations pose a significant challenge to notions that interoceptive impairments constitute a core feature of either ASD or alexithymia, at least as far as the direct perception ofinteroceptive signals is concerned.
Journal ArticleDOI
Frontier of Self and Impact Prediction.
TL;DR: The most recent methods used to estimate peripersonal space boundaries by the means of dynamic stimuli are described and how impact prediction and approaching stimuli modulate this space by social, emotional and action-related components involving principally a parieto-frontal network is highlighted.

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.
