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 in visual search is coupled to the cardiac cycle
TL;DR: In this article, the authors found a significant coupling of saccades, subsequent fixations, and blinks with the phase of the cardiac cycle, which has been reported as the period of maximal effect of the baroreceptors9 activity upon cognition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Autism and psychosis as diametrical disorders of embodiment.
TL;DR: Evidence that these two sets of disorders exhibit opposite susceptibilities from typical individuals to the rubber hand illusion is described, supporting the diametric model of autism and psychotic-affective disorders and implicate the adaptive human system of self-embodiment, and its neural bases, in neurodevelopmental disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI
General anaesthesia as fragmentation of selfhood: insights from electroencephalography and neuroimaging
TL;DR: Interestingly, connectivity within the posterior brain regions is maintained even to quite high concentrations of anaesthetics, potentially representing a pathognomonic marker of the core self that possibly is involved in maintaining a reduced energy state of homeostasis.

Bayesian Learning Models of Pain: A Call to Action
Abby Tabor,Christopher Burr +1 more
TL;DR: This review considers the application of Bayesian models of learning in pain that inherently accommodate uncertainty and action, which, it is proposed are essential in understanding learning in both acute and persistent cases of pain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased Neural Strength and Reliability to Audiovisual Stimuli at the Boundary of Peripersonal Space.
TL;DR: A previously unrealized view into the neural dynamics and temporal code associated with the encoding of nontactile multisensory around the PPS boundary is provided.

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.
