A common neurobiology for pain and pleasure (2008, background): “As the experience of pain represents a deviation from homeostatic balanc”
Functional neuroanatomy of aversion and its anticipation (2006, background): “Research on anticipating pain, shock, and pharmacologically induced panic has implicated the insula and ACC (Chua et al., 1999; Javanmard et al., 1999; Ploghaus et al., 1999, 2003; Sawamoto et al., 2000; Craig, 2003; Wager et al., 2004; Lorenz et al., 2005).”
Tax compliance and psychic costs: Behavioral experimental evidence using a physiological marker (2016, background): “Thus, experienced pain serves as a homeostatic emotion reflecting an adverse condition in the body that prompts a behavioral reaction (such as being more compliant) to remove or reduce the pain (Craig 2003).”
Envy As Pain: Rethinking the Nature of Envy and Its Implications for Employees and Organizations (2012, background): “As with pain in general, envy can be further understood as a homeostatic emotion reflecting an adverse condition in the body that impels a behavioral response (Craig, 2003).”
To nostalgize: mixing memory with affect and desire (2015, background): “Emotions that ameliorate the thermoregulatory discomfort linked with innocuous cooling may also ameliorate the thermal distress linked with exposure to coldness (Craig, 2003).”
Some like It Vigorous: Measuring Individual Differences in the Preference for and Tolerance of Exercise Intensity (2005, neutral): “In particular, interoceptive stimuli are processed by a multilayered, increasingly complex, hierarchically organized system that extends from the brain stem to the somatosensory cortex (Craig, 2003 ).”
Heart Rate Variability as an Index of Regulated Emotional Responding (2006, background): “For example, a new view of pain as an emotion that motivates homeostatic behaviors (Craig, 2003) suggests that individual differences in emotional responding (as assessed via HRV) may account for variation in pain sensitivity and the ability to regulate pain through various strategies (e.”
Brain mediators of cardiovascular responses to social threat, Part I: Reciprocal dorsal and ventral sub-regions of the medial prefrontal cortex and heart-rate reactivity (2009, background): “The brain systems that regulate the various organ systems of the body have evolved from survival-related brainstem circuits, but also include cortical and subcortical systems central to social and emotional processes (Bandler & Shipley, 1994; Craig, 2003; Porges, 2003).”
A Framework for Studying Emotions Across Phylogeny (2014, neutral): “For example, in Drosophila and in other insects, the state of hunger (sometimes called a ‘‘homeostatic emotion’’ [Craig, 2003]) increases behavioral sensitivity to sucrose (Inagaki et al.”
The Multidimensional Assessment of Interoceptive Awareness (MAIA) (2012, background): “Although this research has led to a new understanding of how emotions [27,40,43–46] and the perception of pain [47,48] are related to interoception, it has to a large degree stayed away from key behavioral and cognitive aspects well-known in perception and psychological pain research, such as apprai”
How do we perceive the pain of others? A window into the neural processes involved in empathy (2005, background): “Although pain processing is known to be a complex and subjective process that has fueled many debates (Craig, 2003; Treede et al., 1999), the perception and processing of a painful stimulation is known to come from a combination of perceptual/ sensory and emotional/affective components (Ploghaus et ”
What is reinforced by phasic dopamine signals? (2008, background): “The reinforcing consequences of terminating an aversive event are widely appreciated (Craig, 2003; Fields, 2004; Kim et al., 2006; Seymour et al., 2005).”
Intrinsic Brain Connectivity in Fibromyalgia is Associated with Chronic Pain Intensity (2010, neutral): “In fact, it has been hypothesized that the insula integrate subcortical homeostatic information, such as that arising from a pain state (41), into a higher-order cognitive and affective conscious state of awareness (42).”
The neurobiology of itch (2006, background): “This would confirm a different central projection pathway for pain primary projections to the dorsal posterior insula as part of a basic interoceptive cortex with homeostatic functio”
