The pathways of interoceptive awareness [PDF]
Nature Neuroscience, 2009 A network of cortical brain regions, including the insula and anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), has been proposed as the critical and sole substrate for interoceptive awareness. Combining lesion and pharmacological approaches in humans, we found that the insula and ACC were not critical for awareness of heartbeat sensations.

Insula neuroanatomical networks predict interoceptive awareness. [PDF]
Heliyon, 2023 Interoceptive awareness (IA), the subjective and conscious perception of visceral and physiological signals from the body, has been associated with functions of cortical and subcortical neural systems involved in emotion control, mood and anxiety disorders.

Interoceptive awareness declines with age [PDF]
Psychophysiology, 2009 AbstractAging has been shown to increase sensory thresholds for a variety of exteroceptive and proprioceptive stimuli. However, the influence of aging on interoceptive awareness has received relatively little empirical attention. Here we report an inverse association between aging and interoception, as indexed by the ability to sense the heartbeat at ...

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.

Interoceptive awareness in experienced meditators [PDF]
Psychophysiology, 2008 AbstractAttention to internal body sensations is practiced in most meditation traditions. Many traditions state that this practice results in increased awareness of internal body sensations, but scientific studies evaluating this claim are lacking. We predicted that experienced meditators would display performance superior to that of nonmeditators on ...

Interoceptive awareness in a Southeastern US college sample: validation of the multidimensional assessment of interoceptive awareness - version 2. [PDF]
BMC Res NotesAbstract Objective The Multidimensional Assessment of Interoceptive Awareness, version 2 (MAIA-2) is a commonly utilized self-report instrument to assess individuals’ ability to perceive bodily sensations. The MAIA-2 has displayed variable psychometric properties across samples.

Interoceptive Awareness and Female Orgasm Frequency and Satisfaction. [PDF]
Brain SciBackground: The female orgasm is a highly understudied phenomenon that is linked to both wellbeing and relationship satisfaction in women. Although orgasm has been associated with interoception—the sense of the physiological condition of the body—very few studies have directly examined the influence that interoception has on orgasm.

Investigating the relationship between interoceptive accuracy, interoceptive awareness, and emotional susceptibility [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2015 Interoception, the sense of the physiological condition of the body, provides a basis for subjective feelings and emotions. Anterior insular cortex activity represents the state of the body and varies according to personality traits, such as emotional susceptibility (ES)-the tendency to experience feelings of discomfort and vulnerability when facing ...

Neural systems supporting interoceptive awareness [PDF]
Nature Neuroscience, 2004 Influential theories of human emotion argue that subjective feeling states involve representation of bodily responses elicited by emotional events. Within this framework, individual differences in intensity of emotional experience reflect variation in sensitivity to internal bodily responses.

Interoceptive awareness in essential hypertension
International Journal of Psychophysiology, 2010 Clinical practice and research provide evidence indicating the involvement of psychological factors in essential hypertension. Little is known about interoception (i.e. the ability of perceiving bodily signals) in essential hypertension. The present study focused on the assessment of interoceptive awareness in newly diagnosed-untreated hypertensives by
