We propose a new account of how self-reference affects information processing. We report
evidence that self-reference affects the binding of memory to source, the integration of parts …

Neuroscience has made considerable progress in unraveling the neural correlates of mental
phenomena like self, consciousness, and perception. However, the “common currency” …

All epistemic agents physically consist of parts that must somehow comprise an integrated
cognitive self. Biological individuals consist of subunits (organs, cells, and molecular …

Both psychedelics and meditation exert profound modulatory effects on consciousness,
perception and cognition, but their combined, possibly synergistic effects on neurobiology …

We review neuroimaging research investigating self-referential processing (SRP), that is,
how we respond to stimuli that reference ourselves, prefaced by a lexical-thematic analysis …

The human brain is tightly coupled to the world through its sensory‐motor systems—but it
also spends a lot of its metabolism talking to itself. One important function of this intrinsic …

The self is the core of our mental life. Previous investigations have demonstrated a strong
neural overlap between self‐related activity and resting state activity. This suggests that …

The neural representation of self is a fundamental question for brain research. Employing
activation likelihood estimation (ALE) meta-analyses, we assessed the commonalities and …

Social connection is critical to well-being, yet how the brain reflects our attachment to other
people remains largely unknown. We combined univariate and multivariate brain imaging …

Dissociative experiences have been associated with increased disease severity, chronicity,
and, in some cases, reduced treatment response across trauma-related and other …
