Active interoceptive inference and the emotional brain
We review a recent shift in conceptions of interoception and its relationship to hierarchical inference in the brain. The notion of interoceptive inference means that bodily states are regulated by autonomic reflexes that are enslaved by descending predictions from deep generative models of our internal and external milieu. This re-conceptualization illuminates several issues in cognitive and c...
متن کاملTop-down predictions in the cognitive brain.
The human brain is not a passive organ simply waiting to be activated by external stimuli. Instead, we propose that the brain continuously employs memory of past experiences to interpret sensory information and predict the immediately relevant future. The basic elements of this proposal include analogical mapping, associative representations and the generation of predictions. This review concen...
متن کاملThe proactive brain: memory for predictions.
It is proposed that the human brain is proactive in that it continuously generates predictions that anticipate the relevant future. In this proposal, analogies are derived from elementary information that is extracted rapidly from the input, to link that input with the representations that exist in memory. Finding an analogical link results in the generation of focused predictions via associati...
متن کاملInteroceptive cortex in the posterior insula: comment on Garcia-Larrea et al. 2010 Brain 133, 2528.
Sir, In a recent publication in Brain, Garcia-Larrea et al. (2010) reported their identification of patients with post-stroke central pain and selective thermosensory dysfunction, but without other somatosensory abnormalities, and they suggested that the basis for such dissociated symptoms might be the presence of a 'third somatosensory area' specifically supporting temperature sensation in the...
متن کاملKnowing your own heart: Distinguishing interoceptive accuracy from interoceptive awareness
Interoception refers to the sensing of internal bodily changes. Interoception interacts with cognition and emotion, making measurement of individual differences in interoceptive ability broadly relevant to neuropsychology. However, inconsistency in how interoception is defined and quantified led to a three-dimensional model. Here, we provide empirical support for dissociation between dimensions...
