system anticipates, senses, and integrates signals originating from the body. We focus on …

The inadequacy of a categorial approach to mental health diagnosis is now well-recognised,
with many authors, diagnostic manuals and funding bodies advocating a dimensional, trans …

Interoception refers to the sensing of internal bodily changes. Interoception interacts with

The heartbeat counting task (HCT) is among the most frequently used measures of
interoceptive accuracy (ie, IAcc). Growing concerns, however, have been raised regarding …

Mental processes and their neural substrates are intimately linked to the homeostatic control
of internal bodily state. There are a set of distinct interoceptive pathways that directly and …

Recent research has linked bodily self-consciousness to the processing and integration of
multisensory bodily signals in temporoparietal, premotor, posterior parietal and extrastriate …
