Respiratory and cardiac interoceptive sensitivity in the first two years of life [PDF]
Several recent theoretical accounts have posited that interoception, the perception of internal bodily signals, plays a vital role in early human development. Yet, empirical evidence of cardiac interoceptive sensitivity in infants to date has been mixed.

Neurobehavioral evidence of interoceptive sensitivity in early infancy [PDF]
Interoception, the sensitivity to visceral sensations, plays an important role in homeostasis and guiding motivated behaviour. It is also considered to be fundamental to self-awareness.

An experimental approach to training interoceptive sensitivity: study protocol for a pilot randomized controlled trial [PDF]
Background Eating in absence of hunger is quite common and often associated with an increased energy intake co-existent with a poorer food choice. Intuitive eating (IE), i.e., eating in accordance with internal hunger and satiety cues, may protect from ...

The Mediating Role of Interoceptive Sensitivity in the Relationship between Physical Activity and Depression Symptoms in College Students [PDF]
A substantial body of evidence indicates that neurological, psychological, and behavioral health issues are profoundly linked to interoceptive sensitivity.

The Role of Interoceptive Sensitivity and Hypnotizability in Motor Imagery. [PDF]
Motor imagery (MI) requires the mental representation of the body, obtained by integrating exteroceptive and interoceptive information. This study aimed to investigate the role of interoceptive sensitivity (IS) in MI performed through visual and kinesthetic modalities by participants with low (lows, N = 26; SHSS: A, M + SD: 1.00 + 1.52), medium ...

People with higher interoceptive sensitivity are more altruistic, but improving interoception does not increase altruism. [PDF]
AbstractPeople consistently show preferences and behaviors that benefit others at a cost to themselves, a phenomenon termed altruism. We investigated if perception of one’s body signals – interoception - may be underlying such behaviors. We tested if participants’ sensitivity to their own heartbeat predicted their decision on a choice between self ...

Closing the gap between the inside and the outside: interoceptive sensitivity and social distances. [PDF]
Humans' ability to represent their body state from within through interoception has been proposed to predict different aspects of human cognition and behaviour.

Sensitive Liberals and Unfeeling Conservatives? Interoceptive Sensitivity Predicts Political Liberalism [PDF]
The stark divide between the political right and left is rooted in conflicting beliefs, values, and personality—and, recent research suggests, perhaps even lower-level physiological differences between individuals. In this Registered Report, we investigated a novel domain of ideological differences in physiological processes: interoceptive sensitivity ...

Heartbeat-Evoked Cortical Potential during Sleep and Interoceptive Sensitivity: A Matter of Hypnotizability [PDF]
Individuals with different hypnotizability display different interoceptive sensitivity/awareness (IS) and accuracy (IA), likely sustained by morphofunctional differences in interoception-related brain regions and, thus, possibly also observable during ...

Heart rate and insula activity increase in response to music in individuals with high interoceptive sensitivity. [PDF]
Interoception plays an important role in emotion processing. However, the neurobiological substrates of the relationship between visceral responses and emotional experiences remain unclear.
