Turning body and self inside out: visualized heartbeats alter bodily self-consciousness and tactile perception [PDF]
Prominent theories highlight the importance of bodily perception for self-consciousness, but it is currently not known whether bodily perception is based on interoceptive or exteroceptive signals or on integrated signals from these anatomically distinct ...

Lost in the socially extended mind: Genuine intersubjectivity and disturbed self-other demarcation in schizophrenia [PDF]
Much of the characteristic symptomatology of schizophrenia can be understood as resulting from a pervasive sense of disembodiment. The body is experienced as an external machine that needs to be controlled with explicit intentional commands, which in ...

Heartfelt embodiment: Changes in body-ownership and self-identification produce distinct changes in interoceptive accuracy [PDF]
Interoceptive and exteroceptive information are both essential for the construction and update of self-awareness. Whereas several studies have shown how interoceptive accuracy or cardiac feedback influences body-awareness, no studies have looked at the ...

Behavioral, Neural, and Computational Principles of Bodily Self-Consciousness [PDF]
Recent work in human cognitive neuroscience has linked self-consciousness to the processing of multisensory bodily signals (bodily self-consciousness [BSC]) in fronto-parietal cortex and more posterior temporo-parietal regions. We highlight the behavioral, neurophysiological, neuroimaging, and computational laws that subtend BSC in humans and non-human
