5/5 We would like to thank our patients and volunteers for their time, as well as our clinical and academic collaborators @katerinafoto.bsky.social@lauracrucianelli.bsky.social
4/5 Our findings further suggest that mood more than cognitive traits relate to this dysfunctional precision-weighting mechanism supporting a previously hypothesised relation between negative mood, interoception, and self-efficacy in other psychopathologies (see: tinyurl.com/3ufa5c5z)
This paper outlines a hierarchical Bayesian framework for interoception, homeostatic/allostatic control, and meta-cognition that connects fatigue and depression to the experience of chronic dyshomeost...
3/5 These difficulties further extend to prospective metacognition, with AN patients showing lower precision-weighted Learning Rates than HCs, i.e. patients consider the retrospective ‘evidence’ less than HCs when updating prospective, self-efficacy such beliefs.
2/5 We show that irrespective of interoceptive performance per se, AN patients draw pessimistic metacognitive conclusions about their performance retrospectively.
