1/ I’m delighted to share our new paper, out now in @cpsyjournal.bsky.social with @tobiasuhauser.bsky.social and @micahgallen.com, correlating variations in cortical microstructures with individual differences in gamified exploration-exploitation behaviours! 🧵 doi.org/10.5334/cpsy...

Is there a single "interoceptive sense"? Our new study in @commspsychol.nature.com says: probably not. In 241 participants, cardiac and respiratory interoception were completely uncorrelated — only subjective confidence was shared across domains. www.nature.com/articles/s44... #psychscisky 🧪

Graphical abstract showing three panels. Left panel, "Multiorgan Interoception Measures," depicts a translucent human body
silhouette with anatomically rendered heart (red) and lungs (blue), accompanied by schematic icons for three
psychophysical tasks: the Respiratory Resistance Sensitivity Task (RRST), Heart Rate Discrimination Task (HRDT), and an
auditory control condition. N = 241 participants. Center panel, "Psychophysical Modelling and Individual Differences,"
shows a fan of overlapping sigmoid psychometric curves in blue-to-red gradient representing individual variation in
perceptual threshold (α) and precision (β), a hierarchical Bayesian model diagram, and icons for metacognitive bias and
M-Ratio efficiency. Right panel, "Key Finding: No Cross-Modal Relationship," displays a scatterplot of cardiac versus
respiratory sensitivity with a flat regression line (r ≈ 0, BF₀₁ > 6), a compact Bayes Factor heatmap with mostly blue
null-supporting cells and one orange cell indicating that subjective confidence is shared across modalities (r = 0.51***).
Takeaway: interoceptive ability is modality-specific.

So happy to see our work on organ-specific interoception is out! 🫀🫁 Here is the thread detailing the results when preprinted 🧵: bsky.app/profile/leah...
