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:

I can feel my heartbeat: Dancers have increased interoceptive accuracy
TL;DR: Dancers had a higher IAcc, and this effect was independent of their lower heart rates, counting ability, and knowledge about HR, while general art experience correlated positively with IAcc.
Journal ArticleDOI
Empathy and the responsiveness to social affordances
TL;DR: A version of the direct perception theory of empathy is developed which takes this perceptual capacity to depend upon recognising in what way the other person is responsive to the affordances the environment provides to understand something about the meaning they give to the world.

TL;DR: Melloni et al. as discussed by the authors proposed a model that characterizes successful social negotiation in terms of three dynamic strategies: self-benefit maximization through an adaptation to self-perspective (ASP), the opponent's preferences and benefits must be acknowledged at each decisional step, via an adaptive to the other's perspective (AOP), and more crucially, proposers must integrate their own perspectives with those of others to successfully deploy a self-other integration strategy (SOIS) while ASP and AOP constitute short-term strategies.

TL;DR: Overall, support reduced pain ratings in women, but not men, relative to baseline, and increased activity in a distributed set of brain regions, including valuation-encoding frontostriatal areas, was correlated with lower pain ratings.

Sensorimotor Grounding of Musical Embodiment and the Role of Prediction: A Review.
TL;DR: It is argued that more rigorous evidence is needed before any decisive conclusion in favor of a “radical” musical embodiment thesis can be posited, and two recent empirical studies demonstrating that music performance relies on similar principles of sensorimotor dynamics and predictive processing.

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.

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.
