Interoceptive signalling has been shown to contribute to action regulation and action experience. Here, we assess whether motor behaviour can be influenced by anticipated homeostatic feeling states induced through different predictable contexts. Participants performed a reward incentive paradigm in which accurate responses increased (gain) or avoided the depletion (averted loss) of a credit score. Across two types of blocks, we varied the predictability of the outcome state. In predictable blocks, a cue signaled a gain, loss or control trial (motor response did not affect the credit score). This allowed participants to anticipate the interoceptive feeling state associated with the outcome. In unpredictable blocks, the cue had no relation to the type of outcome. Thus, participants were unable to anticipate the feeling state it produced. Via EEG, we measured the Heartbeat Evoked Potential (HEP) and the Contingent Negative Variation (CNV) as indices of interoceptive and motor processing respectively. In addition, we measured feedback P3 amplitude following outcome presentation and accuracy and reaction times of the required motor response. We observed higher HEP and CNV amplitudes as well as faster and more accurate motor responses in predictable compared to unpredictable outcome blocks. Similarly, feedback-related P3 amplitudes were significantly lower for predictable relative to unpredictable outcomes. Crucially, HEP amplitudes measured prior to feedback predicted feedback-related P3 amplitudes for anticipated outcome events. Results suggest that accurate anticipation of homeostatic feeling states associated with gain, loss or control outcomes facilitates motor execution and outcome evaluation. Findings are hereby the first to empirically assess the link between interoceptive and motor domains and provide primary evidence for a joint processing structure.
内感受信号被证明有助于行为调节和行为体验。在这里,我们评估了通过不同的可预测情境是否可以影响预期的稳态感觉状态来影响运动行为。参与者进行了奖励激励范式,其中准确的反应会增加(增益)或避免信用评分的消耗(避免损失)。在两种类型的块中,我们改变了结果状态的可预测性。在可预测的块中,提示信号表示增益、损失或控制试验(运动反应不会影响信用评分)。这使参与者能够预测与结果相关的内感受感觉状态。在不可预测的块中,提示与结果的类型没有关系。因此,参与者无法预测它产生的感觉状态。通过 EEG,我们测量了心跳诱发电位(HEP)和条件负变(CNV),分别作为内感受和运动处理的指标。此外,我们还测量了反馈呈现后反馈相关 P3 振幅以及所需运动反应的准确性和反应时间。我们观察到在可预测的结果块中,HEP 和 CNV 振幅更高,运动反应更快、更准确。类似地,对于可预测的结果,反馈相关的 P3 振幅明显低于不可预测的结果。至关重要的是,在反馈之前测量的 HEP 振幅可以预测预期结果事件的反馈相关 P3 振幅。结果表明,准确预测与增益、损失或控制结果相关的稳态感觉状态有助于运动执行和结果评估。研究结果首次经验性地评估了内感受和运动领域之间的联系,并为联合处理结构提供了初步证据。
