The Effects of a 3-Week Heartbeat Perception Training on Interoceptive Abilities [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022 Recent studies showed promising short-term effects of heartbeat perception training on interoceptive abilities. Research on the effects of heartbeat perception training on interoceptive abilities over time is sparse.

Heartbeat perception is causally linked to frontal delta oscillations [PDF]
Communications BiologyThe ability to accurately perceive one’s own bodily signals, such as the heartbeat, plays a vital role in physical and mental health. However, the neurophysiological mechanisms underlying this ability, termed interoception, are not fully understood ...

Heartbeat and somatosensory perception [PDF]
NeuroImage, 2021 Our perception of the external world is influenced by internal bodily signals. For example, we recently showed that timing of stimulation along the cardiac cycle and spontaneous fluctuations of heartbeat-evoked potential (HEP) amplitudes influence ...

Altered heartbeat perception sensitivity associated with brain structural alterations in generalised anxiety disorder [PDF]
General Psychiatry, 2020 Background Palpitation is a common complaint in generalised anxiety disorder (GAD). Brain imaging studies have investigated the neural mechanism of heartbeat perception in healthy volunteers. This study explored the neuroanatomical differences of altered

Patients with postprandial distress syndrome experience problems with their interoceptive perceptual function to the gastric region, but their heartbeat perception is normal: a case control study [PDF]
BioPsychoSocial Medicine, 2023 Background Visceral hypersensitivity in functional dyspepsia can be localized or widespread, and there is no simple method of assessment. Measuring interoceptive accuracy at different sites provides an assessment of perceptual hypersensitivity to ...

Evidence toward the potential absence of relationship between temporal and spatial heartbeats perception [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Many interoceptive tasks (i.e. measuring the sensitivity to bodily signals) are based upon heartbeats perception. However, the temporal perception of heartbeats—when heartbeats are felt—varies among individuals.

Accuracy of heartbeat perception is reflected in the amplitude of the heartbeat‐evoked brain potential [PDF]
Psychophysiology, 2004 AbstractNeurotransmission from the heart to the brain results in a heartbeat‐evoked potential (HEP). In this study, the influence of the ability to detect one's heartbeats based on the HEP was examined. According to their results in a heartbeat perception task, subjects were classified as good (n=18) or poor (n=26) heartbeat perceivers.

Body conscious? Interoceptive awareness, measured by heartbeat perception, is negatively correlated with self-objectification. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 BACKGROUND: 'Self-objectification' is the tendency to experience one's body principally as an object, to be evaluated for its appearance rather than for its effectiveness.

Exploring the role of interoception in anxious traits and symptoms [PDF]
Frontiers in PsychiatryIntroductionInteroception, the ability to sense internal bodily signals, has been increasingly linked to anxiety, yet the mechanisms underlying this relationship remain largely unknown.

Evidence for Cardiac Phase-Linked Perception of Heartbeats. [PDF]
PsychophysiologyCommonly used methods for assessing cardiac interoceptive accuracy have been criticised for assuming that all individuals perceive their heartbeat at the same delay following contraction of the heart. However, it remains unclear whether some individuals perceive their heartbeat at a particular phase of their cardiac cycle – that is, at a relative point
