The role of hypnotizability in interoceptive processing: Heartbeat-evoked cortical potential study at rest and during a heartbeat counting task
Žan Zelič, Gioia Giusti, Laura Sebastiani, Enrica Laura Santarcangelo · FENS Forum 2024
Highly hypnotizable individuals (highs) show lower interoceptive accuracy than individuals with low hypnotizability (lows), which may be due to their lower insular grey matter volume. However, none of the previous studies investigated interoceptive processing in medium hypnotizable individuals (mediums), who represent the majority of the population. Thus, in the present research we compared both interoceptive accuracy and heartbeat-evoked cortical potentials (HEP) in all three hypnotizability groups. EEG and ECG were recorded in a sample of 14 highs, 14 mediums and 18 lows (classified by the S
